Soup for Colds, Step 2: The Process

The basic idea is to make a soup base that is fortified with cold-fighters. Think of it as a “master stock,” something you can then take in any direction. This approach is my own invention (at least I think it is), and while it does involve an extra step, I believe it saves time in the long run. And for you nonmeaters, the same process described here will work just fine with your favorite vegetarian stock.
