    • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
    • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • 1 sprig rosemary
    • Freshly ground pepper, to taste

    Directions:
    In a 4-quart saucepan melt the butter over medium-high heat, add the leeks and garlic, and sweat them a bit.

    Add squash, tomatoes, and pears, and sweat them a bit. Add salt.

    Pour in just enough stock to cover the main ingredients.

    Celiac.com 02/11/2015 - Broth is the new black. Read the food magazines and blogs and you will inevitably come upon an article about the benefits of broth. But, unlike so many health foods, broth is not an overhyped fad food.
    Broth can be digested by every body, and broth is healthy for everyone.
    For people with celiac disease or gluten-intolerance, broth can be part of a diet that promotes healing and wellness of the gut, the immune system, the bones and more.
    From baby to granny and from sickest to healthiest, broth has something for everyone.
    Ingredients:
    4 pounds beef marrow and knuckle bones 3 pounds meaty rib or neck bones 4 or more quarts cold filtered water ½ cup cider vinegar 3 onions, coarsely chopped 3...

    Celiac.com 02/17/2015 - Homemade bone broth is a great foundation for a healthy diet, and helps to promote gut healing, and overall health.
    Simmering animal bones and marrow, feet, tendons, and ligaments in water for one or two days turns collagen into gelatin, and produces a rich complex soup of amino acids and highly absorbable minerals like calcium, magnesium, sulfur, silicon, phosphorus, along with trace minerals.
    For best results use organic pasture raised, or free-range chickens. Many commercially-raised chickens produce stock that does not gel properly.
    Ingredients:
    1 whole free-range chicken or 2 to 3 pounds of bony chicken parts, such as backs, breastbones, necks and wings 2-4 chicken feet gizzards from one chicken 4 quarts...

    Celiac.com 02/24/2015 - I've posted recipes for chicken and beef broth lately, and now it's time for what may be the healthiest of all broths, fish broth.
    Naturally gluten-free fish broth offers a delicious way to promote gut health, and recovery from illness.
    Ideally, fish broth is made from the bones of sole or turbot. Unfortunately, it's hard to get whole sole fish in America. However, you can make a great broth using any non-oily fish, such as snapper, rock fish, or lingcod. Ask your fish merchant to save the carcasses for you.
    Avoid using oily fish such as salmon for making broth, mainly because oily fish will make the broth turn rancid during the long cooking process.
    Be sure to use the heads as well as the bodies, as the heads are especially rich in...
