Ingredients (alternatives to make your own can be found at the bottom of the recipe!)
-1-2 pcs Whole organic chicken or Bones from grass-grazing/outdoor pig or beef preferably with the joint on the bone
- about 1 - 1.5 liters of water (it should cover the bone and the vegetables.)
- to taste Unrefined sea salt
- to taste Pepper
-2 carrots
-1 fennel
-2 yellow onions
-8 cloves Garlic
- to taste Optional spices/herbs
-2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Do this:
- Cut the onion, carrot and fennel, garlic into rough pieces
- Down with the vegetables and herbs in the pot and pour water so that half the chicken is covered.
- Set the crock pot on low heat and the timer for 6 hours.
- Taste the broth after a couple of hours and add more spices or herbs if needed.
- Add apple cider vinegar and possibly add more water so that the whole hull/bones are under water. Let simmer on low heat for another 2-6 hours.
- Turn off the heat, pick up the hull/all the bones. Then strain the broth and let it cool. In the refrigerator, a film/layer forms at the top. This is collagen and very useful. When you heat it, the membrane melts.
- Freeze the broth in ice cubes or store it in the refrigerator if you are going to use it in the next few days.
- Use as broth/flavouring or as soup.
