Slow-Cooked Lamb Bone Broth With Rosemary & Garlic

This slow-cooked lamb broth is deeply nourishing and hydrating, supporting immunity as well as gut, joint and hormonal health. The bones provide collagen, amino acids and minerals to nourish the gut and joints. Antimicrobial garlic and comforting vegetables add immune-supporting antioxidants, and the rosemary not only provides an aromatic depth of flavour that pairs perfectly with the lamb, but also supports hormonal balance. Together, these ingredients create a comforting and versatile broth that can be drunk alone or used as a base for soups, stews or sauces," says nutritional therapist Alexa Mullane.
