Introduction

Either drink this soothing stock on its own to brighten up any time of day, or take it to work in a flask for lunch and pour it over a selection of finely sliced veggies or cooked meat or prawns. Thinly sliced carrots and baby spinach work particularly well with shredded cooked chicken. Just make sure you don’t take anything too chunky, as it won’t warm through in the broth.
