Ingredients Required (Including the Amounts for Each)

Here are the ingredients you need to prepare a tasty beef stew with beef bone broth.

• 1 cup of beef bone broth
• One lb. beef stew meat
• 2 Tbsp. of butter
• ¼ cup of all-purpose baking flour
• Salt and pepper to taste
• One russet potato
• Three carrots (remove skin)
• Four ribs celery
• One tomato
• ½ onion

Preparation Time

• Cut the tomatoes, onions, and carrots into small pieces.
• Quarter and slice the potato and pat your stew meat using paper towels to drain the excess moisture (that will help it brown properly).
• Chop the meat chunk in the shape of inch cubes and set it ready for cooking.

Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions

• Spread the butter into the stock pot and heat on medium heat to melt the butter
• Coat the cubed meat using the all-purpose flour and put them in the melted butter
• Cook for at least 3-4 minutes until it's sufficiently brown (Don't cook thoroughly. Just ensure the meat surfaces start to turn brown).
• Add the onions and cook for 2 minutes.
• Pour the broth into the stock pot, and add the potato, carrots, tomato, and celery.
• Replace the lid and cook on medium heat for at least one hour (ensure the vegetables are fork tender).
• Taste, and add the seasoning of your desire. Add woody herbs like bay, rosemary, sage, oregano, and thyme if you please. Also, you can go for tender herbs like dill, parsley, tarragon, cilantro, or chervil to garnish your broth.
• If you love the stew thick, remove the lid and let it simmer for at least 30 minutes to drain the broth. However, remember this is also going to intensify the stew's flavor. Thus, it's best to add salt sparingly lest it becomes uncomfortably salty.
• Set it aside to cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Why Should You Use Bone Broth in Your Stew?

Bone broth makes your cooking easier since you don't have to make the stew from scratch again. There's no specific way to measure the nutritional value of all bone broth (since bones are different). But bone broth comes with several benefits.

First, drinking bone soup can help you manage your weight. Soup is generally watery. However, it makes you feel full and satisfied without eating more food.

Also, bone broth gives you a lot of opportunities and room for recipe alternatives. While this recipe only talks about beef stew, you can also use the beef bone stew to make a cauliflower soup, prepare several other traditional delicacies, etc.

Here are some benefits of using bone broth.

1.     Contains Numerous Vitamins and Minerals

Beef bone broth has several vitamins and minerals. However, the exact nutritional value depends on the bones you use for your broth. Animal bones typically contain calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium- the minerals you need for strong bones.

On the other hand, fish bones have iodine which helps in metabolism and thyroid function. Vitamin A and K2, minerals like zinc, boron, selenium, manganese, and omega-3 are available in the marrow.

2.     Good for your Digestive System

Bone broth is easy to digest and can help digest other foods. Broth contains gelatin, which helps in attracting and holding liquids. Gelatin also binds water in the digestive tract, which helps move food down your gut quickly.

Thus, it's good if you have digestive problems like inflammatory bowel disease or leaky gut syndrome.

3.     Improves Sleep

The amino acid in bone broth can help promote relaxation and boost deeper sleep.

4.     Better Hydration

Water is essential in almost all bodily functions. It makes up to 70% of your body. Bone broth contains a high content of water, and drinking the broth helps you remain hydrated.

5.     Good for Your Skin, nails, and Hair

Bone broth has collagen, the primary protein in connective and structural tissues like bones, ligaments, tendons, skin, and muscles. The fibrous structure of collagen lends these parts of your body their strength, shape, and elasticity.

According to a 2019 health review, older and middle-aged women who used collagen as a supplement for three months witnessed an improvement in their skin's texture, elasticity, hydration, and firmness.
