Nutritional Comment: Bone marrow is a soft, spongy tissue found inside femur bones. Red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are produced in the bone marrow. With its unique fat and cholesterol composition, this substance is highly prized for its life-giving and brain-building properties. Bone marrow is considered a delicacy and is generally roasted or taken from bones that have been used in bone broth. Spread on toasted sourdough French bread rounds, it can become your daily nirvana.

This is an original recipe from Monica Corrado.
Ingredients
- 6–8 marrow bones, cut short, no longer than 2 inches tall
- ½ cup raw butter, cut into 1-inch cubes and softened
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon dried rosemary
- ¼ teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped fine
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread bones out on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, marrow side up.
- Roast bones for 15–20 minutes, until marrow is bubbly and knife-tender all the way through. Let marrow bones cool to touch, then scoop out marrow.
- Add marrow, raw butter, sea salt, rosemary and parsley to a food processor. Blend until incorporated, and serve.
This sounds really good!
Is chicken bone marrow good too?
yes
And serve? More information please. I’m new to the benefit of bones. Do you spread this on bread or crackers or eat it by its self. Will it keep or have to be used right away. Sounds easy to make. Could you use the bones and make broth afterwards? Thank you
you can spread this on bread or crackers, or eat it by itself. it should keep for a few days in the fridge. you can use the bones to make broth with afterwards.
