Everyone interested in the almost miraculous benefits of bone broth is invited to a workshop at Albert Carlton-Cashiers Community Library from 2:00 to 4:00 P.M. Monday, November 20.
Nationally-recognized nutritionist Medea Galligan will show participants how to prepare bone broths in their own kitchens. Bone broth is typically made with bones and can contain a small amount of meat adhering to the bones. As with stock, bones are typically roasted first to improve the flavor of the bone broth. Bone broths are typically simmered for a very long period of time (often for 8 hours, and sometimes in excess of 24 hours), with the purpose being not only to produce gelatin from collagen-rich joints but also to release a small amount of trace minerals from bones.
Medea Galligan earned her MS in Nutrition from Oklahoma State University and is a graduate of the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. Her workshops in Gut Health and Fermented Foods were staged at the Cashiers Library earlier this year and proved extremely popular.
Pre-registration is required. To reserve a space, call the library at (828) 743-0215 or Galligan at (828) 989-9144.
The Cashiers Library has also issued the Library Challenge for children and teens. Participants may pick up a calendar dated through June 2018. Printed on the calendar is a series of reader challenges asking the youth to read “A Book by An Author You’ve Never Heard Of,” or “A Book Set in School” or “A Book About Non-Human Characters.” There are literally dozens of challenges to be read. Participants have until the end of June 2018 to complete the competition. Youth who read a book in every category will be awarded a free book to take home and enjoy again and again.
Albert Carlton-Cashiers Community
Library is located at 249 Frank Allen Road.
