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.

This is the time of year when the markets are beginning to show signs of
spring while winter cabbage is still plentiful and the oranges seem to be
sweete...
