About Pork bones
Pork bones are a versatile ingredient commonly used in various global cuisines, particularly Asian, European, and American cooking. Rich in collagen and marrow, they are often simmered to create nourishing broths, soups, or stews with a deep, savory flavor. Nutritionally, pork bones provide minerals like calcium and phosphorus, essential for maintaining strong bones and teeth, as well as amino acids that support joint health when gelatin is extracted during cooking. They are a natural source of healthy fats, but care should be taken as prolonged boiling can release high amounts of saturated fat into the broth. While they are low in calories, any additives or accompaniments such as heavy seasonings or high-sodium content can diminish their health benefits. Pork bones are ideal for slow-cooked comfort dishes and are a sustainable choice as they make use of less commercially utilized parts of the animal.
