CHICKEN SOUP WITH POACHED EGGS AND HERBS
After Armida had prepared her bone broth, she cooked with it to create a variety of different
dishes. Her favorite way to consume the broth was simply, with only a small handful of tiny pasta
simmered into it; she didn't miss her absent teeth in her enjoyment of it. When Armida sent
me home with a jarful of broth, a freshly laid egg, and a shoot of green garlic, I discovered my
own favorite way to use the broth: I made a simple chicken soup by simmering the garlic, fresh
herbs, and Armida's orange-yolked egg right in the mineral-rich broth. Just as Armida described,
I found the broth to be deeply restorative, and cooked in this way it seemed the perfect joining of
chicken and egg.
