A warm, soothing bone broth infused with fresh turmeric, ginger, and collagen powder, designed to boost wellness and support joint, skin, and gut health.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef or chicken bones (grass-fed beef bones or organic chicken carcasses recommended)
  • 2 inches fresh turmeric root, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 2 inches fresh ginger root, peeled and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons collagen powder (e.g., Vital Proteins or Great Lakes)
  • 2 medium carrots, roughly chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion, quartered
  • 4 garlic cloves, smashed
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon cracked black peppercorns
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 12 cups filtered water (about 3 liters)
  • Sea salt to taste (preferably Celtic sea salt)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange bones on a baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  2. Peel and slice turmeric and ginger. Roughly chop carrots, celery, and onion. Smash garlic cloves.
  3. Transfer roasted bones to a large stockpot or slow cooker. Add turmeric, ginger, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, black peppercorns, bay leaves, and apple cider vinegar.
  4. Pour in 12 cups filtered water, covering ingredients by about an inch.
  5. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for at least 8 hours, ideally 12 to 24 hours. Skim off foam or impurities occasionally.
  6. Strain broth through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large bowl. Discard bones and vegetables.
  7. Season broth with sea salt to taste.
  8. Stir in 2 tablespoons collagen powder off the heat to prevent clumping.
  9. Let broth cool slightly, then transfer to airtight containers. Refrigerate up to 5 days or freeze up to 3 months.

Notes

Avoid boiling vigorously to keep broth clear and smooth. Skim foam early to remove impurities. Add collagen powder off heat to prevent clumping. If fresh turmeric is unavailable, use 1 tablespoon turmeric powder. For vegetarian version, substitute bones with dried shiitake mushrooms and add soy sauce or miso paste for umami.
