The Evolution of Bone Broth
Bone broth is often associated with frugal cooking methods – where every part of an animal is used to create a nourishing stew or broth. While nose to tail consumption is still key for many, this has undergone a huge transformation. No longer is bone broth simply crafted in home kitchens – it’s now found in upmarket restaurants, supermarket shelves and health-conscious households internationally. This shift, most evident from 2010, is not just a trend but a reflection of changing consumer preferences towards wholesome, nutrient-dense foods.
Meeting the Demand: The Role of B2B Manufacturers
In this landscape, B2B beef bone broth manufacturers play a key role. For their customers, they are not just suppliers, but partners in food innovation and quality. By employing advanced manufacturing techniques and working to stringent quality standards, these manufacturers ensure consistency and nutritional integrity in every batch of bone broth produced.
“At Taranaki Bio Extracts we have a traceable system with a window across every step of our supply chain. It’s audited under our Risk Management Programme (RMP) giving you a guarantee of the quality you receive in our ingredients for your recipes when you partner with us,” says Dr Mike North, Site Manager, Taranaki Bio Extracts
The Science Behind Superior Bone Broth
What sets apart a premium bone broth from the rest? It’s not just about simmering bones and vegetables. The thorough sourcing of ingredients, the precise cooking times, and the extraction of nutrients are all key factors. Taranaki Bio Extracts, a B2B manufacturer, is led by Dr Mike North (PhD in Food Engineering) – the team leverages scientific insights to enhance flavour profiles and maximise nutritional benefits for their customers.
“As part of a successful commercial team at Taranaki Bio Extracts, I enjoy applying my knowledge to develop ingredient solutions for customers. I’ve worked as a Research Scientist for large government-funded and commercial projects delivering substantial R&D outcomes,” says Dr Mike North.
Sustainability and Ethical Practices
Alongside quality, today’s consumers are increasingly concerned about sustainability and ethical practices. Taranaki Bio Extracts recognise this responsibility and prioritise sourcing from quality New Zealand meat processors who deal with farms that uphold animal welfare standards. Our mild climate, rich soil, clean air and fresh flowing water creates an ideal environment for year-round lush green grass to grow – grass New Zealand livestock love and a lifestyle that enriches the animals from the beef right through to the bone. Taranaki Bio Extracts engage in transparent practices, ensuring that every step of the production process aligns with ethical principles and environmental stewardship.
The Future of B2B Bone Broth
Looking ahead, the future of B2B beef bone broth manufacturing looks to bring even greater innovation. New flavours and formulations cater to diverse dietary preferences, expanding the reach of bone broth into new markets and culinary applications. While bone broths available to the consumer were traditionally simple flavours like chicken or beef, today’s supermarket shelves boast an array of spice-enhanced flavours and combinations.
By blending tradition with innovation and sustainability, Taranaki Bio Extracts not only meets, but exceeds consumer expectations through their own customers.
“We’ve been dealing with Taranaki Bio Extracts for over four years now. We get the satisfaction of traceability of TBE’s ingredients. Their traditional extraction process from animal bones and vegetables gives us a flavourful ingredient for our recipes. Their process and output are consistent, ensuring the ingredients they supply to us taste the same every time,” – a valued customer – New Zealand food manufacturer.
For customers seeking authenticity and wellness, Taranaki Bio Extracts stands for excellence, shaping a healthier and more flavourful future.
