Ginger Collagen Broth is a deeply nourishing and aromatic soup designed to comfort the body and awaken the senses.

Freshly grated ginger adds warmth and anti-inflammatory benefits, while mushrooms bring an earthy richness. The coriander contributes a fresh herbal layer and a splash of apple cider vinegar enhances digestion. This light and zingy ginger collagen broth is ideal as a cleansing start of the day or a soothing evening reset.

TIPS

Here are some helpful tips for Ginger Collagen Broth:

• Use Fresh Ginger: Freshly grated ginger delivers a sharper, cleaner taste than powdered forms.
• Slice Mushrooms Thinly: Thinner slices cook faster and integrate better into the light broth.
• Don’t Overboil: Simmer gently to preserve the collagen and natural richness of the bone broth.
• Add Vinegar Last: Incorporating Vinegar near the end helps keep its beneficial acids intact.
• Balance Flavours: A squeeze of lime or a touch of sesame oil can add extra layers of flavour.

VARIATIONS

• Vegan Option: Replace bone broth with mushroom broth and skip collagen for a plant-based version.
• Protein Boost: Add a poached egg or diced chicken for a heartier bowl.
• Spiced Version: Include a cinnamon stick or star anise for added warmth.
• Green Upgrade: Stir in baby spinach or bok choy for extra nutrients and volume.
• Fermented Additions: Top with kimchi or sauerkraut for a probiotic twist and tangy contrast.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

• Fridge Storage: Store cooled broth in an airtight glass jar or container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Freezer Storage: Freeze in labelled containers for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
• Reheating Instructions: Warm gently over low heat. Stir occasionally and do not boil once the coriander has been added.
