I love to make beef bone broth in the dead of the winter. Beef bone broth is such a great comfort food and the base for soups and gravies!

The best way to cook a pastured chicken is to slow cook it. I have found that slow roasting in a dutch oven works really well. This will take about 3 hours to cook, but once you put it in the oven you can forget about it for a few hours. I have also found that soaking the chicken in a brine will make it more juicy and tender. Aside from having a savory and nutritious meal, you may use the bones in your crock pot for a nutrient dense bone broth. How’s that for using every part of the animal in gratitude and respect?

What could be more of a comfort food than matzoh ball soup? While it is part of the traditional meal on Jewish holidays, matzoh ball soup is enjoyed year round by many people. Also known as Jewish penicillin, it does indeed ward off the chills and aches of a cold or flu.
