Making bone marrow soup today

I pressure cook all the time but i've never made anything with a bone marrow. Good luck! The key with the pressure cooker is to keep an eye on it. If the pressure gets too high, it will whistle really loud and it's quite jarring. Also, never attempt to remove the top while there is pressure in the pot - most cookers lock and won't allow it to come off anyway so you don't have to worry about it.

i am jealous of your pressure cooker! i really want one. i usually do all my bones in the crockpot. chicken bone broth is my favorite tasting. beef bone broth kind of tastes weird but i still drink it for it's nutritional benefits.

Banana do you roast the bones first? I am hoping it helps. I won't get to taste it until tomorrow (unless I cheat) because it's got to be skimmed. I could not believe how much fat in the roasting pan. But then, I never roasted bones before!

It's not my cooker I borrowed it. Its brand new and never used! Maybe they will let me have it? Fingers crossed.

I just used one fat carrot
2 leeks
1 tsp Apple cider vinager
8 cups water
2 lbs beef marrow bones

Roast bones one hour 350
Slow cook 60 minutes

30 min to go then I will let the pressure release on it own!!!!

That's it

Amazing how broth recipes differ from country to country! For me, for example, adding vinegar to a broth is something mega exotic. For a Polish broth, you use 3 big carrots, 3 parsley roots, 1 celery root and 1 leek :)

Ewa, that's sounds relish too.😋

I tasted it and it's really light! As in I may have put too much water. So we shall see if it sets up tomorrow and gets gelatin. If not I drink it anyway! Pressure cooker or not, that's like work!

Skinny where its been!

Skim tomorrow! Sure hope it gells and i think some salt will make it taste better.

Well mine did not tell up. It's a little thick but I have made soup way thicker! I will def drink it in hopes of some benefit and maybe throw bones in my regular recipe for added. I have seen it so thick online you could cut it like butta!

Good luck DDR!

I just had a cup and its good! I looked online and Poppie you are right still packed with calcium, mag and more. And we all know that on steriods we neec those right? Yep next time less water.

Hey bananananananangirl -

I have beef bones from in my freezer that I bought last year. Are those still good to use or is there some sort of expiration date? I am compfused.

Thanks.

i hope I am so lucky it gells more. No worries though. Next time I will use joints too! Sound so barbaric😱

My batch turned out pretty well, I think. I had a mug when I got home and it tasted pretty good. I put it into mason jars and into the fridge, and it was jelled by bedtime. There's a thin layer (2-4mm thick) of grease/oil on top...should I scrape that off before reheating, or use it as is? We have some leftover rice noodles and stir-fried veggies in the fridge, so I'm mixing that together with the broth for lunch today.

I am going to try chicken bone broth when this is gone. What's the best way to get chicken bones...you can't just buy those like you can beef marrow bones, can you? If I cook up a whole chicken and save the bones, will that be enough for a 6-qt crock pot?
