Nutritional values

The home-made meat broth is a super base for soups, sauces and fish dishes! After degreasing, the spicy broth is almost calorie and fat free. And because it is home-cooked, you can be quite sure that it contains no undesirable flavour enhancers or additives.

This variant is particularly quick to prepare and is always a good choice when it comes to the meat broth alone. If you also want to use the meat, take a not too fat piece of beef bow, cross rib or leg slice and let the meat broth simmer quietly for about 90 minutes. Then degrease, remove all visible fat from the meat, dice it and use it again.
