MOB 101 – Bone Broth
Ruthie and Mikko demonstrate a quick and easy method for making a nourishing bone broth which is a globally renowned foundation of nutritional and preventative medicine and eating for vitality.
Although beef bones are used here, the same method can be used for other bones. Chicken Broth is particularly well known as a powerful immune booster.

Bones: www.deckfamilyfarm.com These bones provided us with the richest broth I have ever made. The difference between well loved pasture fed animals and factory farm ones is blindingly obvious to every sense.

HD 101 – Peanut Balachaung
This sophisticated peanut chutney is a signature Burmese dish. Not only is it affordable and addictive but it is also nutritious and keeps well. Make up a batch and add it to your salads, mix it into freshly blanched vegetables or just eat it as a snack. I learned this recipe during the Buddhist lent period when people often become vegetarians for a couple months. Balachaung is normally made with dried shrimp.
Ingredients:
onions, garlic, oil, turmeric, chili powder, ginger, peanuts, fish sauce or salt. Full Recipe.
