A Naturopaths Lunch Australasian ‘Pho’ Soup
I am a qualified Naturopath and have been an accredited member of the Australian Traditional Medicine Society since 2015. I thought to share with you the recipe for my daily lunch. The reason why I choose this specific recipe is mainly for digestion and assimilation of nutrients, however there are many other reasons for selecting the specific ingredients along with the methods of cooking. If you have any questions I am happy to answer them below.
Stock (Make your own)
Ingredients:
1 Free range Chicken Drumstick
2 Bay leaves
7 Peppercorns
1 Carrot Onion (ends cut off)
½ TSP Himalayan Rock Salt
Method
Simmer on low with lid on for 3-4 hours. Strain into your large soup bowl, let rest for 1 minute (To allow and heavy metals to fall to the bottom) then pour back into saucepan. Discard the last little bit of stock (As potential heavy metals (ie: Lead) may be in this).
Now add the following ingredients to the broth and bring to the boil for 2 minutes.
