This cold weather has
prompted me to make some warming stews. So last night after my lamb chop
bones(no meat on these btw that had been eaten last week) had slow cooked in
the crockpot for 24 hours I made lamb stew and used the liquid from the bones
as the stewing liquid for the stew itself. This stew has apple cider in
it for the deglazing liquid that I put over the sauted vegetables and then
browned saratoga lamb, butternut squash, pearl onions and prunes. Spices
included tumeric, cinnamon, cumin and fresh ginger. So it has a warming
but sweet flavor about it, excellent for the spleen and kidney yang and good
for my women who have a history of miscarriage or luteal phase defect, plus you
get the nourishment from the bone broth itself.
Take care and enjoy this
cool weather but be sure to eat something warming. I added the collard
greens when I reheated it for lunch today. The greens give us the
minerals and help to balance out excess hormones and stagnation in our body and
cool down any heat.
