Sick Day Soup aka Japanese Penicillin
On days when you are under the weather (what kind of euphemism is that, anyway) a bowl of chicken soup has long been the “cure”. Have you heard of “Jewish penicillin”? It’s chicken soup! In Japan miso soup is the restorative. We combined the two! Best of all worlds. Get the recipe.
