Instant Pot Bone Broth

chicken bones

💰Cheaper: turkey bones

Turkey bones are often less expensive and can provide similar flavor.

apple cider vinegar

💰Cheaper: white vinegar

White vinegar is a cost-effective substitute for extracting minerals from bones.

Start by gathering your ingredients: chicken bones, vegetable scraps (like carrot tops and celery tops), and an onion.

Place the chicken bones into the Instant Pot. Use about two large handfuls, approximately from a 3-4 pound chicken.

Add a bunch of chopped carrots, a bunch of chopped celery, and one large chopped onion into the pot.

Pour in a splash of apple cider vinegar.

Add some black peppercorns by breaking them up slightly as you add them.

Include one bay leaf into the mixture.

If desired, add salt now or wait to salt when using the broth later.

Close the Instant Pot lid and set it to cook. (Note: specific cooking time not mentioned in the transcript.)

After cooking, strain the broth through a fine mesh sieve to remove solids.

Allow the broth to cool before storing it in jars or containers.
