In a large pot, bring the chicken stock, daikon and ginger to a boil. Season lightly with salt. Turn down to a simmer and cook for 20 to 30 minutes until the daikon is tender.

Comments: This soup has become my winter staple. It is easy to make and can be the recipient of many leftover meats.
If you like a Chinese flavour, add the sesame oil. For a Southeast Asian flair, and my favourite, garnish with the cilantro, green onions, chilies and a squeeze of lime.
Taking a trick from Vietnamese beef noodle soup, the boiling soup can be poured over extremely thinly sliced raw beef. The heat of the soup will cook it through.
Servings: 4
Money may be the husk of many things, but not the kernel. It brings you food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health; acquaintance,
but not friends; servants, but not loyalty; days of joy, but not peace or happiness. --------
