Over the years, I’ve come up with a few recipes to make when you’re feeling under the weather: a basic miso soup and a heartier spicy peanut variation, as well as a Thai-inspired chicken soup with lemongrass and coconut milk. I’ve also given you my friend Katy’s cure-all SmugSmoothie, which contains a generous dose of [...]
