Using the whole animal is so important to us at Healy Family Meats - we don't believe that anything should go to waste. Of all the culinary activities we've lost touch with, making pure, authentic stock from bones is one we'd especially like to rekindle everyone's passion for. So simple, so satisfying and so much better than cubes, powders or jellies. With dried stock cubes and bouillon powders, you're never really certain what's gone into them. By boiling up your own stock you can be 100% in control of your ingredients. So if you want to stay on top of your salt intake or reduce your consumption of preservatives, this is an excellent place to start. It's also a great way to be a real nose-to-tail cook. Making your own stock is one of the easiest but most effective ways to add layers of flavour to your cooking. Proper bones make a stock that has a unique depth of flavour and is packed with nourishing vitamins and minerals. Our beef stock bones are full of gelatinous marrow. A simple stock can form the basis for outstanding gravies, broths, soups and casseroles. Quantity: 1kg

How to prepare

Preheat your oven to 220C. Roast the beef stock bones first for roughly an hour until deep brown in a large roasting dish, turning once during roasting.
Meanwhile, fry chopped onions, carrots and celery in a deep pan for roughly 20-30 minutes until caramelised. Stir in 1 tbsp tomato purée, a bay-leaf and a sprinkling of peppercorns, then add the roasted bones.
Cover with cold water until the bones are completely submerged and add apple cider vinegar, bring to a boil. Once it has reached a vigorous boil, reduce to a simmer, partially covered, for up to 8 hours or more, until the bones are soft and broken down. Remove any white froth that will rise to the surface of the water from time to time during the cooking duration.
After 8 hours remove from the heat and let it cool slightly. Strain through a fine muslin to remove any bits.
Decant into containers and store in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for 6 months for later use.
