Magic soup

Over one hundred recipes fill this cookbook, spanning classic stocks and stews, substantial main-course soups, restorative bone broths, and a detox soup cleanse. Among them are salmon poached in lemongrass tea, lemon chicken with mint and quinoa, and a comforting take on chicken soup. Seasonal options range from butternut squash paired with caramelized pear and a beetroot and burrata combination to a beef-and-beer Swedish sailors' soup. Warm-weather cooks can try watermelon gazpacho and fennel vichyssoise, while nettle soup with flowers and a different miso soup for each season suit those seeking healthier fare. The title recipe, a restorative blend of turmeric, ginger, cardamom, cayenne, cinnamon, cumin, spinach and seeds, is the centerpiece.
