Ingredients
8 Servings
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 bay leaves
- 1500 grams beef bones
- 2 carrots
- 2 celery stalks
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 onion
- 1 teaspoon peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3500 ml water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
Step 2
Place beef bones on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 30 minutes, turning halfway through to ensure even browning.
Step 3
Transfer the roasted bones to a large stockpot. Add the carrots, celery, onion, garlic, bay leaves, apple cider vinegar, peppercorns, and water.
Step 4
Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for at least 12 hours. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface.
Step 5
After 12 hours, strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Discard the solids.
Step 6
Let the broth cool to room temperature, then refrigerate. Once chilled, remove the layer of fat that solidifies on top.
Step 7
Reheat the broth as needed, seasoning with salt if desired. Enjoy as a warm drink or use as a base for other dishes.
