Jewish penicillin? Fuhgeddaboudit. This was my mother's cure-all for everything from a sprained ankle to a broken heart, including, of course, the common cold. I don't know whether it was her Swedish Type A personality or just good cooksmanship, but her methodology of cooking the chicken, the veggies and the noodles separately should really be patented. The only tweaks I've added are a bit of ginger to give it some zip and some soy sauce for seasoning.
