Chicken soup is a comforting, globally loved dish often enjoyed for its soothing and nourishing qualities. Traditionally made with chicken, vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions, herbs such as parsley or thyme, and a savory broth, chicken soup has roots in various cuisines, including American, Jewish, and Asian culinary traditions. Its warm, hearty composition provides essential nutrients like protein from the chicken and vitamins from the vegetables. Additionally, the broth can aid hydration and digestion, making it a popular home remedy during cold or flu season. Low in calories and fat when prepared without cream or excessive salt, chicken soup can be a healthy option. However, pre-packaged or restaurant versions may contain higher sodium levels, which should be monitored for those restricting salt intake. Homemade versions offer greater control over ingredients, providing a customizable mix of flavor and health benefits.
