They're often frozen. Normally you can buy them in 3-inch or so segments; I got mine sliced thinner because it's a convenient size for snacks and it's easier to pop out the marrow! Ann Marie: hmm you mentioning fried cheese got me thinking - I wonder if I could fry the cheese just soft enough to wrap around the marrow... I bet that would make a delicious melt-y treat! To pop marrow out of longer bones I usually soak them in just warm water. Sometimes you can push it out of the longer bones without soaking (I use a little grapefruit scooping contraption I have lying around to push it gently lol). But if not soaking it a little and gently pushing it out usually works. Then put it in the fridge to firm it back up. I had one recently that wouldn't pop out and I just ended up with a pile of marrow suitable for spreading ;) My kids will crack their chicken drumstick bones and suck that marrow out so it's a popular food here ;) And thanks gals for the compliments on Galen - I'm pretty partial to him myself!

I love the way you feed your kids! This makes me think of fried cheese or a chicken nugget -- only much healthier! How do you pop the marrow out? I always roast my marrow bones and then scoop out the marrow and serve on toast. I guess I also keep my bones frozen -- so that wouldn't work unless I defrosted them. Galen is UNBELIEVABLY cute. Love that he's sleeping on a cloth dipe! Fantastic post! I love the way you feed your kids!

But I don't have a clue where to buy marrow, or how it comes? I wonder if our local farm would have it? I want to reach right into that picture to give your baby a snuggle!!
