Comforting Aroma and Taste

The classic “Mother’s penicillin” with more than a hint of truth. There really is some evidence to show that classic chicken soup may act as an anti-inflammatory, and slow the development of upper respiratory cold symptoms. But there’s no reason to wait until cold season to enjoy the comforting aroma and taste of this rich soup, and it’s fun to experiment with different sizes of noodles (kids love the really thin ones) and there are some tasty gluten-free options available.
