Author Notes

Last winter both my husband and I caught the cold. Since we couldn't afford to take time off, I decided to adapt one of my grandmother's soup recipes by throwing in all the ingredients I believed to be immune-boosting. We drank at least one bowl per meal for the next two days and felt better by the third day! —Noni Wang
