Meat and its stock are versatile culinary staples, rich in flavor and nutrients. Meat, sourced from various animals like beef, chicken, pork, or lamb, is a significant source of high-quality protein, essential amino acids, iron, zinc, and B vitamins, particularly B12. Its stock, made by simmering meat and bones with vegetables and herbs, contains minerals, collagen, and gelatin, which may support joint and gut health. Globally cherished, meat stocks serve as the foundation of countless cuisines, from French consommé to Asian broths like pho. While nutrient-dense, moderation is key, as some cuts of meat can be high in saturated fat and cholesterol. Opting for lean cuts, trimming visible fat, and using minimal salt in stocks can enhance health benefits. Homemade stock, free of preservatives, is often more nutritious than store-bought versions. Balancing meat and stock within a varied diet supports overall well-being.
