soup bone is easy. just clean some bones you want to extract soup from. make sure they have some meet on them or better some marrow . to add flavor,
you have to boil the bones until a thick soup forms. add spices or just salt to taste.
make sure you sieve the bone mixture to get soup only.
mix the soup well.
one typical Kenyan way is to put soup in a jerrycan then shake in a rhythmic way.
note: inbox me for how it is done. enjoy!
