On the subject of dubious Peat information,
do you have any thoughts on how Peat says to cook
Bone Broth?
There is like one reference out there
saying that Peat says to cook bone broth for no longer than 3 hours
because after that it degrades the protein.
Trouble with that is:
have you ever tried to do that?
I've done it 2 or 3 times,
and it just simply does not seem to work:
that is not long enough to break down the collagen into gelatin.
And also, if you think about it,
Peat recommends, alternatively, prepared gelatin powder:
Isn't that cooked and heated out the wazoo--
I mean, cooked for a long time?
I've always suspected Peat might've meant to not cook the meaty portions
(of oxtails, for example)
for over 3 hours.
That would make sense.
