Soup is one of the best foods we can eat. Here is a
recipe for a quick warming soup for the person on the
go:
Ginger Sweet Potato Soup
Ingredients:
2 medium sweet potatoes
2 quarts of water (or 1 qt vegetable broth and 1 qt
water)
½ tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground white pepper
¼ cup rice wine or dry sherry
2 TB chopped fresh ginger (or 6 thin 1” diameter
slices)
chopped cilantro
Directions:
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut into 1‐1/2” rounds,
then cut in half again.
Place with all the other ingredients (except the
cilantro) in a soup pot and simmer until the potatoes
are soft but not mushy. Sprinkle with a little bit of
chopped cilantro and red bell pepper before serving.
Note: some people like to add a bit of honey or brown
sugar to this soup.
Yield: serves 6‐8 people
Wishing you good health!
