Watercress, Apricot Kernel and Pork Bone Soup

Why people make this soup

Nourilo here. When I wrap wontons or dumplings I like to fold a little watercress into the half-fat, half-lean pork filling — the texture is lovely. I use the tender leaves for the filling and save the rest for soup. Watercress soup is not only tasty but is traditionally associated with soothing a dry cough and easing the throat. This watercress, apricot kernel and pork bone soup is one I like to recommend for a dry, hot cough with a parched throat.
