New Sunday Trading Hours

On and from Sunday 26th February Broth Bar & Larder will be reducing its Sunday trading hours to 11am - 4pm (previously 8am to 6pm). This change also means that we will not be receiving a delivery of Iggys bread on Sundays.  

I have been totally humbled by your overwhelming support and I apologise in advance for any inconvenience that the reduced Sunday trading hours may cause. But I really do hope that Sunday regulars will come within the 5 hours that we will be open. We are also open Monday to Saturday 8am to 6pm.  

Bone Broth Workshops 2017

I am excited to be running a series of bone broth workshops. One of my missions in life is to bring this age-old elixir of health back to the modern table. With a vengeance. And a playful twist. 

Home-made stock (aka bone broth) was a staple in all traditional cultures. People of yesterdays ate nose to tail – meaning that the whole of the animal (including the bones, fat and organ meat) was consumed. In fact these ‘odd bits’ were the mostly highly prized part of a kill for our hunter-gatherer ancestors, as they worked out through trial and error over millennia that they were the most nutrient-dense. Today, most people in Western society simply don’t consume home-made broth on a regular basis, either because of lack of information or know-how on where to source or how to prepare broth properly and deliciously. Here’s your opportunity to build strong immunity, robust digestive function and vibrant health for 2017 and beyond by learning how. 

I’ll teach you the ins and outs and everything you need to know about how to make a gelatinous, delicious broth and how to incorporate it in your and your family’s daily diet. 

I have a e-folder full of testimonials about how my bone broth and my broth making workshops changed people lives, like this one:

“Hi Soulla, I’ve made a dedicated effort to drink broth every day for the last couple of months and the pain in my arthritic hands has almost gone….It’s a miracle!!”
