In looking at other's blogs I notice they type a lot before the recipes. I am not really sure what to begin saying so I figure I will make different parts to my paleo/primal story with recipes attached. Sound good? Cool. Also, Cave Daddy (that sounds weird, might change his nickname later) created an AMAZING barbecue sauce recipe but he won't let me share it. Boo. Hopefully I can talk him out of that stance.
On with the recipes!
Chicken Bone Broth
chicken carcass (or two or three)
Some peppercorns
bay leaf
3-5 garlic cloves
half onion
chopped celery stalk (optional)
chopped Carrot (optional)
Throw everything in a crock pot and just barely cover with water. Let it cook on low for about 24 hours. Strain the solids out and refridgerate the broth. Use within five days or freeze. If it has a gel-like consistency that is perfectly okay and normal. Could also be done on the stove =]
Beef Bone Broth
Several beef bones
Some peppercorns
Bay leaf
3-5 garlic cloves
whole onion (chunked)
chopped celery stalk (optional)
chopped Carrot (optional)
Preheat oven to 350F. Place bones in a single layer on a roasting pan and pop in the oven for about 20 minutes or until browned. Throw everything in a crock pot and just barely cover with water. Let it cook on low for about 72 hours. Strain the solids out and refridgerate the broth. Use within five days or freeze. If it has a gel-like consistency that is perfectly okay and normal. Could also be done on the stove =]
Homemade Mayo
1 egg
1/4 c light olive oil
1 tsp mustard powder
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp lemon juice OR apple cider vinegar
1 c light olive oil
Put first five ingredients in food processor and blend well. While it is still running, slowly add the full cup of olive oil. You will notice when the mayo starts to come together. The process of adding the cup of oil should take 3-5 minutes. You seriously can't add it too slow but if you add it too fast it could "break" the mayo (the egg and the oil will separate). Should keep in the fridge for about a week.
