About Bone marrow

Bone marrow, a nutrient-rich tissue found within animal bones, is a delicacy in many cuisines, including French, Italian, and Vietnamese traditions. Often roasted or used as a base for soups and broths, it boasts a rich, creamy texture and a savory, umami-packed flavor. Bone marrow is an excellent source of healthy fats, collagen, and essential micronutrients such as iron, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin A. These nutrients support bone health, immune function, and skin elasticity. It's also prized for its dense energy content, making it a satiating addition to meals. However, due to its high fat content, portion control is key, as excessive consumption may contribute to calorie surplus or elevated cholesterol levels in certain individuals. Bone marrow is celebrated not only for its nutritional benefits but also for its integral role in traditional and modern culinary practices around the world.
