Broth
A cooking preparation rather than a specific animal — its cleanness follows the meat used to make it
Would you eat it?
Mentioned in 3 verses (KJV)
Description
Broth wasn’t a food in its own right but a byproduct of cooking meat, and its cleanness simply followed whatever animal it came from. Gideon carried a pot of it as part of an offering to a visitor who turned out to be the angel of the Lord.
