Broth and Stock from the Nourished Kitchen: Wholesome Master Recipes for Bone, Vegetable, and Seafood Broths and Meals to Make with Them [A Cookbook]

"A cookbook from the author of the popular website The Nourished Kitchen, featuring 60 recipes for nutritious and healthy master broths, soups, stews, gravies and other dishes using poultry, meat, vegetable, and seafood broths. Nutrient-dense bone broths are having a major moment: from the $8 per cup servings at New York "broth bars" to Kobe Bryant crediting its restorative properties for his improved athletic performance, broths are in the news and being turned to for their health properties.

Jennifer McGruther is the perfect author to address this topic--a trusted authority on traditional foods who has been touting the value of broth since before it was trendy. The health benefits of broth are many: it is rich in protein, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and other trace minerals, which are easily absorbed by the body when consumed in liquid form. Bone broth has been proven to help mitigate the effects of arthritis and joint pain since it contains glucosamine, gelatin, collage, and chondroitin.Broth and Stock from the Nourished Kitchen features recipes for the broths themselves as well as soups, stews, and meat dishes that incorporate broths, and is the ideal guide for anyone interested in integrating these healthful concoctions into their daily lives simply and approachably"--

"This is a most beautiful book to look at and to read, and it's a courageous one, too, for as the author herself says, 'making broth is an experience in delayed gratification, ' not something we have much experience with today. But this patient tending of the pot which makes full use all the ingredients we bring into our kitchens, is perhaps just what's needed to foster mindfulness, deliciousness and health. I love the promise and stillness of Broth and Stock from the Nourished Kitchen."
-- Deborah Madison, author of Vegetable Literacy

"Many people have been starting to discover the health benefits of simple, basic broth, and discovering how much richness and complexity it can add to any dish. Broth and Stock from the Nourished Kitchen will help you discover the wisdom of your grandparents' approach to eating and will get you thinking about what you can do with broth. Even the most experienced cook will be inspired to create something new."
-- Anya Fernald, CEO and Co-Founder of Belcampo Meat Co. and author of Home Cooked
