Ingredients
Turkey Bones and Broth Base
- 2 lbs turkey bones
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 10 cups water (or fill to 2 inches below the top of the Instant Pot)
Vegetables and Scraps
- 1 celery rib, chopped coarsely
- 1 carrot, chopped coarsely
- ½ onion, quartered
- 1 head garlic, top sliced off
- Scraps from turkey dinner prep (carrot peels, celery leaves, etc.)
- Leftover herbs from turkey dinner prep
Instructions
- Combine: Place the turkey bones, sea salt, apple cider vinegar, chopped celery, carrot, quartered onion, sliced garlic head, vegetable scraps, leftover herbs, and water into the stainless steel inner pot of a 6-quart Instant Pot. Ensure all ingredients are submerged but leave 2 inches of headspace.
- Cook – Instant Pot method: Secure the Instant Pot lid and set the valve to ‘sealing’. Select the manual (high pressure) setting and set the timer for 120 minutes (2 hours). Once cooking is complete, allow the pressure to naturally release until the pressure pin drops, approximately 60 minutes.
- Alternative Cooking Methods: For slow cooker preparation, simmer on low heat for 24 hours. For stovetop, simmer on low heat for 24 hours, adding water as necessary to keep ingredients covered.
- Strain: After cooking, pour the broth through a colander to separate the liquid from the solids. Collect the strained bone broth in a large bowl or jar. Discard or compost the solids.
Notes
- How to Use: Use as a base for soups and stews, substitute for chicken stock in recipes, as a cooking liquid for rice or quinoa, or warm it up and sip as a nourishing drink.
- Storage: Store in an airtight 2-quart jar in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze the broth for up to 3 months. Portion cooled broth into freezer bags or mason jars. Leave ¼ of the jar empty for expansion and keep the lid ajar until frozen solid. Freeze bags flat with as much air removed as possible.
