Prep: 20-25 minutes

Cook Time: 30-40 minutes

Serving size: 6

Ingredients:

1 lb Stewing beef bones (Winners Farm)

3 lbs Bone Marrow

750 ml Vegetable Stock

500 ml Water Buffalo Milk (Goat’s Pride Diary)

1 Medium Onion

3 Cloves Garlic (Rivers Edge Garlic)

1 Tsp Herb Infused Olive Oil (All of Oils)

½ Tsp Salt

Black Pepper (Avafina Organics)

1/2 Cup Pumpkin Seeds (Avafina Organics)

½ Cup Microgreens (Pureland Organics)

Directions:

STEP 1

In a large pot, boil a pot of water with some coarse salt. Rinse the stewing bones and bone marrows under cold water to remove impurities.

STEP 2

Once the water has boiled, carefully place the bones in the pot and blanch for 5-8 minutes depending on how much impurities have surfaced.  

STEP 3

Carefully strain the pot of bones into a colander and rinse off the residual impurities.  Using a butter knife, gently scrape out the marrow in the bone and place it in a medium bowl and set it aside.

STEP 4

Roughly chop the onions and dice the garlic. In a large pot over medium-high heat, add herb-infused olive oil, onions and garlic and sauté until onions are translucent. Add the marrow to the pot and stir well.

STEP 5

Add 100ml of the vegetable stock to the pot and deglaze the pot. Add the rest of the vegetable stock and bring to a boil stirring occasionally.

STEP 6

Add water buffalo milk to the pot and mixing until combine, bring to a boil. Let simmer for 15-20 mins on low heat.

STEP 7

The soup will start to thicken up as the stock evaporates from the heat. Turn off the heat and let cool for 5 minutes.

STEP 8

Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If you don’t have an immersion blender, carefully scoop soup in sections, blend in a blender slowly and pour into a large bowl. Repeat until the soup is fully blended.

STEP 9

Season with salt and pepper to taste and place in a serving bowl.

STEP 10

Serve with toasted pumpkin seeds and microgreens to brighten this hearty dish!  

Recipe Notes:

Bone marrow contains many healthy nutrients, including vitamins, amino acids, essential fatty acids and collagen. Making this soup without water buffalo milk into a bone broth is also very nutritious and has incredible health benefits. Enjoy this creamy soup throughout the year!
