Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
The jars are sterilized under pressure immediately after production. This allows them to be safely stored at room temperature.
We do recommend storing the jar in the refrigerator. This is not mandatory, but after 24 hours the broth becomes nicely
gelatinous and the quality remains optimally preserved.
After opening: keep refrigerated for at least 8 days.
Unopened: see the expiration date on the label. (+- 6 months)
Yes! Freeze the broth immediately after opening. The best way is to pour small portions into a silicone ice cube tray. This way you avoid glass breakage and can easily thaw per portion. The shelf life remains the same as on the label.
We sell handy silicone ice cube trays that are ideal for freezing bone broth.
Gelatin only sets after 24 hours in the refrigerator. Want to use the broth immediately? That's perfectly fine. All nutrients like collagen, amino acids, and minerals are already present anyway.
The firmness can vary due to natural factors such as the season, fat content, the timing within the batch (beginning or end), and even the age or sex of the animal.
Liquid or solid: both are equally nutritious.
Bone broth, also known as bone broth, is a nutritious broth made by simmering bones with a lot of marrow for a long time. During this process, important nutrients such as collagen, amino acids, minerals, and vitamins are released. It has been used for centuries because of its strengthening and restorative properties for the body.
Bone broth is made by slowly simmering high-quality beef marrow bones in water with vegetables and herbs. This process takes 32 hours and occurs below boiling temperature, so that all valuable nutrients are preserved. Afterwards, our broth is sterilized under pressure, ensuring optimal quality and shelf life.
Fond, broth, and bone broth are often confused, but there are clear differences:
- Fond: Fond is a culinary broth that is often more watery and contains pieces of meat. It is cooked briefly and usually diluted, which you can see from the low protein content. Fond is used to add flavor to dishes such as sauces and soups and often contains extra salt and flavor enhancers to enrich the taste and extend shelf life.
- Broth: Broth is not always diluted but often contains other ingredients such as herbs, salt, and flavor enhancers. It is also commonly found in powder form, where starch is added to make it soluble and shelf-stable. Broth is mainly intended as a flavoring and has fewer nutrients than bone broth.
- Bone broth (bone broth): Our bone broth is made exclusively from marrow bones of cattle and simmered at low temperature for 32 hours. This releases nutrients such as collagen, glucosamine, amino acids, and minerals optimally. During the process, the broth is cleaned multiple times and carefully filtered to remove all particles, resulting in a clear, pure broth. The broth contains no added salt, flavor enhancers, or preservatives and has a neutral taste. It is not intended as a flavoring but as a superfood, suitable for adults, children, babies, athletes, and pregnant women thanks to its high nutritional value.

No, HANT bone broth does not have an overpowering meat taste or smell.
The white particles come from the natural fat in the bones. We remove most of the fat, so you will probably only notice a small amount.
This fat dissolves when heating the broth. It contributes to the rich flavor and is completely safe to consume.
No, thanks to the right balance between vegetables, herbs, and bones, our broth is quite neutral in taste and smell. We do not add extra salt, allowing you to use it perfectly in all kinds of dishes, drinks, or even smoothies.
Yes, we use only halal-certified ingredients in our kitchen.
Our broth is not diluted with water, which results in a gelatinous texture when you store it in the refrigerator. This means it has a high protein content. Additionally, we do not use preservatives, but we apply an extensive cleaning and sterilization process to ensure quality and safety.
Our bone broth is a pure natural product, which means the texture and color can vary slightly per batch. That is completely normal! We do not use additives, chemicals, preservatives, or colorings. Everything you taste is 100% real.
Differences can come from things like the season, the gender or age of the animal, or even the moment the pot is filled (the start or end of a batch sometimes really makes a difference!). Sometimes there is a bit more fat, sometimes the gelatin structure changes a little. The organic vegetables we use also play a role in the color and flavor.
In short: All these elements ensure an honest, artisanal broth that is not standardized, but 100% real.
Making bone broth is a long process that requires a lot of care and precision. You need quality bones, such as marrow bones, and must cook them at a low temperature for 32 hours to release all the nutrients.
In addition, the broth must be sterilized after cooking to ensure shelf life.
The process also involves a lot of cleaning and consumes a lot of energy (gas or electricity). To make it easier for yourself, you can buy ready-made bone broth from HANT. It is already fully prepared and ready to use.
Bone broth is packed with nutrients such as collagen, glucosamine, amino acids, minerals, and vitamins. It supports healthy joints, strengthens the skin, promotes gut health, and contributes to a strong immune system.
It is a natural source of nutrition, especially suitable for children, pregnant women, and people who are recovering.
For the best quality bone broth, marrow bones from cattle are the most suitable. These bones contain the highest concentration of nutrients such as collagen and minerals. At HANT, we use only marrow bones to guarantee a product of the highest quality. We do not add other parts to ensure purity and nutritional value. View HANT bone broth here
