When you’re feeling down with a cold, the last thing you may want to do is cook! Well, if you keep a few ingredients on hand you can make this nourishing, soothing broth in a few minutes. If you have chicken, beef, or vegetable broth you can use that instead of water. This broth will keep you warm and hydrated. Have a few cups a day. It will help drain away the mucus from the cold.
Serves 1
1 cup boiling water or broth from meat or vegetables
1 rounded tsp. Miso Master Chick Pea Miso (organic and unpastuerized)
2 Tbsp. cultured vegetables (I prefer a carrot/cabbage/ginger mixture)
a pinch or two of cayenne (optional but very helpful for warming effect)
Place the miso in a mug. Add about a 1/4 of the water and use a fork to press and dissolve the miso. Add the rest of the water, cayenne and vegetables. Stir and serve immediately.
