Bone Broth Makes Me Happy!

I think bone broth is nutritious, but I don't really buy into any of the hype about it's healing properties. It's just delicious and satisfying in a special sort of way. And it costs a lot more to make it than to just buy broth or bullion if you're going to cook with it. But you guys know me, I like to do stuff myself for the sake of doing stuff myself.
 
Oh, and as I read stuff about making bone broth I read posts by people baffled as to what to do with all that nasty fat. Most responses tell them to skim it and throw it out, or at least to get rid of most of it. I also read stuff on how to collect tallow (the fat) and those guys just focus on collecting tallow and basically throw out the broth.

It's nuts. Why doesn't collecting tallow and making bone broth go hands in hand. I mean, it does for me, but none of the stuff I read seems to take that approach. It's either about getting the tallow or getting the broth. Weird.

Doing another batch of broth today (well, starting today).

I want to give a shout out to the China City Market. The last few times I have gone there for beef bones they don't have them in the display but when I ask he goes in teh back and gets them. This time I got about 18lbs, which was three large beef leg bones. He then cuts them for me while I wait. But the reason for the shout out is because he told me while I was waiting that I'm lucky because they lowered the price on their beef bones just the day before at 5pm, from $1.39/lb to $0.99/lb. He said he had asked his boss if he could lower the price and his boss said okay. Then when I was checking out this young guy I see there and in the restaurant every time I go, and who I assume is a member of the family that owns the place, complimented me again (he was so happy to see me buying them last time) on buying the beef bones and was excited to tell me that they had just lowered the price.

Anyway, reward them for their price reduction and get some beef bones. This is the perfect time of year to make some homemade broth.

I think I'm going to do a broth day (can't really call it fasting) once a week, where I only drink my homemade broth. Well, coffee in the morning. No way I'm going without coffee.
