Cordyceps Spore Winter Melon Chicken Breast Soup

Why people make this soup

When the weather turns hot, Nourilo likes to reach for seasonal melons to make a cooling soup — but a good summer soup should also be nourishing, to help keep you strong against the bugs going around. This one pairs plump cordyceps spore heads with winter melon and corn for a soup that is light and refreshing yet building. The cordyceps spore heads are richer and more aromatic than the more familiar cordyceps flower, and are traditionally regarded as supporting the body’s defences.
