Hi Ginger. I attached the basic recipe that I use. There are a lot of references to the benefits of bone broth online. If you have any questions, let me know. In the recipe you can reduce the amount as long as the ratio of ingredients stays roughly the same. The important one is that the water is half the weight of the bones. This is the active ingredient in old fashioned chicken soup that yielded health benefits when you were ill. You can buy bone broth in the supermarket or online but be careful and make sure the protein is greater than 10%. I don't buy from them but fondbonebroth.com and kettleandfire.com have some interesting info but as I wrote, the web has a huge amount of info and alternate recipes. I like to keep mine simple and fresh.
