This bit of culinary advice comes from my nearly 82 year old dad, Tony Stifter, who was an avid road cyclist for nearly two decades. He was a Type A guy and he holds every record in the Twin Cities Bicycle Club. Now retired from the road, he sends me clippings on financial and physical health as well as recipes that he's tried and perfected. This one, he says, truly benefits from the addition of the lemon at the end, as noted in the recipe.
Chicken soup is supposed to be good for whatever ails you. Vegetarians could make this a miso or veggie broth soup with slices of yam and enjoy similar benefits. I use big fresh slices of warming ginger in my soups during the cold winter months. Instead of noodles, try leftover rice. Or for a bit of crunch, place a rice cake in the bottom of your bowl and ladle soup over it. Be creative!
If you are interested (as I am) in natural ways to reduce inflammation in painful or arthritic joints, read and use the food list along side of the recipe.
