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.

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.
