Hi!! I know I’m on break, but I’m so proud of this recipe I couldn’t resist sharing it.
But first…. I GRADUATED!!!! (officially)
Well, onto the food!
Bone broth is all the rage now. It’s full of collage, vitamins and minerals, which makes it a practical miracle food for improving digestion, hair, skin and more. While it’s only been “in vogue” for a few years in the West, Asians have been touting the benefits of soups for hundreds of years. One of my favorites is Singapore’s Bone tea- ribs stewed for hours in a pepper spiced broth until the bone practically falls apart. The original is great, but I decided to up the ante. Adding chicken feet and fish maw add tons of extra(delicious) collagen to create another level of rich depth. Let’s cook!
