This winter season has been harsh on the people who are not feeling well and this is a delicious and simple soup that will help rejuvenate our souls from within.
A soup is a nice way to begin a dinner party, especially if you have some nice Japanese dishes and trays for serving guests.
3 quarts chicken broth
1/2 cup Mirin (Japanese wine) or dry sherry
3 Tb. soy sauce
Garnishes
12-14 fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced
2 lemons, thinly sliced
2 bunches green onions, sliced diagonally into 1/4 inch thick slivers
1 carrot, sliced paper-thin
1/2 pound tiny shrimp (optional)
Bring broth to a simmer. Stir in wine and soy sauce. Simmer 5 minutes.
Arrange garnishes on a lacquered tray. Transfer soup to heated tureen. At table, ladle into small, porcelain bowls or mugs and add a little of each garnish.
