It's March and my defenses are down, and the flu bug has arrived. Last night, I just could not stop coughing, so at 8:37 p.m. I got up and whipped up a pot of soup. It was simmering on the stove 3 minutes later. By 9 p.m. I was sipping hot soup, and after several bowls and an Advil, I settled into a long, sweaty sleep. By morning, I was much better and my head was so clear I put in a full day analyzing accounting policies for a credit union.
So here is my never fail chicken soup recipe.
Ingredients:
4-5 pieces of chicken with skin and bones (frozen pieces work fine)
Cold water
1onion
2 carrots
1 potato
3-4 cloves garlic, roughly sliced
Fresh dill
Fresh parsley
Sea salt
Freshly ground pepper or peppercorns
Dried sage leaves
1 star anise
Instructions:
Put everything into a pot of cold water.
Simmer 30-45 minutes until chicken is tender.
