This flavorful broth is made from the bones, feet and heads of organic chickens. A splash of Bernie's apple cider vinegar helps draw minerals out of the bones. We simmer it at just the right temperature for 12-16 hours to draw out the nutrients without damaging them by overcooking, and to bring out a lovely flavor.

According to Sally Fallon, author of Nourishing Traditions, "[Bone broth] contains minerals in a form the body can absorb easily—not just calcium but also magnesium, phosphorus, silicon, sulphur and trace minerals. It contains the broken down material from cartilage and tendons--stuff like chondroitin sulphates and glucosamine, now sold as expensive supplements for arthritis and joint pain."

You can simply heat the broth with a little salt and pepper, tamari, fish sauce, coconut aminos, miso or any flavoring of your choice. Add it to soups and stews, cook your rice or any starches in it, or braise chicken parts and vegetables for dinner. Cook it down for an umami-rich demi-glace! TSH worker-owner Mud Hut loves making Egg Drop Soup, cooking the whites in the broth first with a little salt and pepper, then adding the yolk and turning the heat off after just a few seconds.

We do not recommend that you freeze the beef broth in these jars. One ingenious way to incorporate broth into your life is to freeze it in ice cube trays, then store the cubes in a bag or container in the freezer. Heat a few anytime you want a cup of broth, add a few cubes when you cook rice or any starch, add to a soup or stew...you get the picture.

A trio of traditional immune boosting plants (turmeric, ginger, and garlic) make this kraut a great support for your health. We've also added black pepper, as many studies are showing that the piperine in black pepper supports the bioavailability of the curcumin in turmeric, making its anti-inflammatory power much more effective. Put a dollop of this bright kraut in a cup of warm broth and let the healing begin!

This flavorful gelatin-rich broth is made from Marin Sun Farms beef bones and browned meat, filtered water, and a splash of apple cider vinegar. Our beef broth is cooked for approximately 48 hours before being jarred, lidded and cooled. According to Dr. Thomas Cowan, "In healthy, traditional cultures, when an animal was slaughtered, all the parts were put to use, including the bones, to make mineral-rich broth. Our modern diet, having largely forgotten the use of broth as the basis of our cooking, is estimated to have less than half the mineral content of more traditional diets. This rich mineral content and the fact that soup broths greatly aid digestion are just two of the many reasons why everyone should make soup broth a part of their daily diet."

We do not recommend that you freeze the beef broth in these jars. Although the jars are meant to be freezer-safe, we have found that the beef broth can still crack the jar when frozen. You can transfer the broth to a different container to freeze it. We find that, unopened, the broth lasts for four weeks or more in the fridge.

Ingredients: Reverse-osmosis filtered water, grassfed beef bones and pan-seared beef, apple cider vinegar*  (* = organic)

With juice from ripe local honeydews and a subtle tarragon note, this refreshing drink has a lively character. Jun is a unique cultured beverage that is made from honey and green tea. Referred to by many as "the champagne of kombuchas," the origins of Jun are shrouded in mystery…some say it originates in Tibet. It uses a culture similar to a kombucha SCOBY or water kefir grains. This is a perfect alternative for those who prefer to avoid all refined sugar, or are on GAPS protocol, as the only sweetener is honey.

Ingredients: filtered water, gunpowder green tea*, raw unfiltered honey, honeydew melons*, tarragon*  (* = organic)

A very floral and citrusy dairy-free water kefir. Water kefir grains, also called tibicos, are used to ferment a base of filtered water with unrefined cane sugar and just a touch of molasses. The sugars are metabolized by the kefir grains to produce a light but rich effervescent base. The brew is then flavored with meyer lemon zest and rose petals to produce a bubbly probiotic “soda.” 

Ingredients: filtered water, cane sugar*, molasses*, raw unfiltered honey, rose petals*, Meyer lemon zest* (*=organic)

Typically eaten at Rosh Hashanah, Tzimmes is a traditional side dish that celebrates the sweetness of life. Our version is made with a variety of sweet potatoes, dried fruit and spices, simmered together and finished with orange juice. Try adding to your next beef stew. "To make a big tzimmes over something" is a Yinglish expression that means to make a big fuss. This is perhaps because of all the slicing, mixing, and stirring that go into the preparation of the dish. Serve as a side dish with the Beef & Cabbage Casserole or the Braised Brisket with Carrots.

It's back!  Limit 3 jars per customer as we begin to get this back on regular production.

This shrub is one of our favorite summer refreshments! We paired freshly juiced, perfectly ripe watermelons with with dill-infused apple cider vinegar and raw local honey to balance the traditional tang of the oxymel (vinegar-infused medicinal tonic). 

A shrub is a traditional fruit concentrate, like a syrup, preserved with vinegar and used to make or flavor beverages. Unlike many others, our version uses raw honey for a treat free of refined sugars! A few ounces with bubbly or still water makes a fabulous drink all on its own (we recommend 4 or 5 parts water to 1 part shrub), and there's no reason you couldn't use it as a cocktail mixer. Shrubs can also add zing to jam or salad dressing, and make a wonderful glaze for grilled meats. 

Ingredients: watermelons,* Bernie's Best raw apple cider vinegar* infused with dill,* raw unfiltered honey (* = organic)

Recipe is gluten-free, dairy-free, and GAPS-diet friendly.
