NATURE'S PENICILLIN



Nature's Penicillin image

Given to me by a friend when my daughter got pneumonia, this is potent and works very well, so I had better pass it forward! A little info(gleaned from Amazing Health): Grapefruit - high in vitamin C which strengthens the immune system. Grapefruit aids the body in eliminating poisons. The rind of the grapefruit is a natural source of quinine. Orange - high in vitamin C and A. Also contains high amounts of Potassium and a large amount of Calcium and Phosphorus. Known to decrease excess mucus from the head and nose. Useful in cases of respiratory ailments, such as bronchitis, pneumonia, and also asthma, high blood pressure and rheumatism. Lemon - contains vitamin B, C, Calcium, Iron, Potassium, and Phosphorus. Lemons are a natural antiseptic, helpful in destroying harmful bacteria in infection. Because of its vitamin C content, it acts as an immune system builder. Especially beneficial to the liver, an important organ of elimination. Lemon is also beneficial because it is alkaline forming in the body. Garlic - contains vitamin B,C, Calcium, Potassium, Phosphorus. Garlic is one of the most beneficial foods for the digestive system and has a positive effect on the lymph system, aiding in the elimination of toxic waste matter in the body. it is also a cleanser of the blood. It is a natural antibiotic and therefore very useful in strengthening the immune system. Onion - contains vitamin A, Thiamine, iron, niacin, and Calcium. Onions have antiseptic qualities. They help drain mucus from the sinus cavities and loosen phlegm. They will also help destroy worms and other parasites in the body. Recommended in cases of asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, flu, and colds. Peppermint Oil - brings oxygen into the blood stream. It cleanses and strengthens the entire body.

JEWISH PENICILLIN (AKA: CHICKEN SOUP)



Jewish Penicillin (Aka: Chicken Soup) image

Make and share this Jewish Penicillin (Aka: Chicken Soup) recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Eric N. Frankel

Categories     Chicken

Time 5h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 whole chicken (5-6 lbs)
1/4 cup celery, chopped
1/4 cup carrot, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 bulb of garlic, chopped
1 shallot, chopped
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon ground pepper
1 gallon water
5 cups water
4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 tablespoons teriyaki sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375º.
  • Place a vertical roaster in an 8¼" x 8¼" x 2½" square glass baking dish.
  • Clean the chicken "innards" and place in a 1-quart pot with 2 cups water, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce, 1 tablespoon Teriyaki Sauce, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon ground pepper. Cover and cook on lowest possible flame for 1 hour.
  • Place chicken on vertical roaster.
  • In the glass baking dish, pour 1 cup water and the remaining Worcestershire and Teriyaki.
  • Cook until wings are VERY dark, but not burned (about 40 minutes); basting every 7 - 10 minutes.
  • In an 8-quart pot, place remaining water, salt, pepper, celery, carrots, onion, garlic and shallot and set on high heat.
  • When chicken is done, set aside to cool.
  • When the innards are done, add the broth to the main pot. If you like innards, enjoy them; if not, discard them (or send them to me).
  • When chicken is cool enough to work with, remove the skin and set aside.
  • Remove all the meat from the bone, and cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • Set the bones aside.
  • Add chicken to the "broth", and reduce to medium-low heat.
  • Wrap the skin and bones in cheesecloth, tying the cheesecloth as you would a tourniquet; basically bring all four corners together and tie.
  • Place skin and bones in broth and simmer for 3 hours, keeping an eye on the level in the pot. Add water as needed.
  • Remove skin and bone cheesecloth and discard (cheesecloth can be washed and reused if desired).
  • If you want to use Homemade Chicken Broth in the future, save what you don't use, chill and skim. Alton Brown would be proud.
  • This is not Campbell's soup, but then Mr. Campbell didn't grow up with a Jewish grandmother.
  • I do hope you enjoy it. Please do me the honor of rating it.

JEWISH PENICILLIN (CHICKEN SOUP)



Jewish Penicillin (Chicken Soup) image

Ok...if you don't ever make any other Jewish food, you must learn how to make this. Your family will love you and you can freeze the leftovers and when someone gets sick, this will fix them.

Provided by Esther Hardman

Categories     Soups

Time 4h30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 lb chicken, a whole bird plus wings and thighs
14 c cold water
1 Tbsp salt
2 medium carrots, peeled
2 large celery ribs
1 medium parsnip, peeled and split if large
1 large leek, split lengthwise and well rinsed, several inches of the green part
1 medium onion, peeled and halved.
several sprigs of parsley and dill
6-8 whole peppercorns

Steps:

  • 1. The most important part is to rinse the inside of the chicken under cold water. You must remove all the liver and any other brown material. This will ensure after your skimming to remove the scum at the initial simmer, you will get a good clear soup-not schmutzy (shmoot-zee), which is ok but not as nice a clear soup.
  • 2. In a large pot bring the chicken, water and salt to a simmer over high heat. Reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes, skimming off any scum that comes to the surface. You can use a fine mesh skimmer or a slotted spoon works fine. Stir the chicken once or twice during this process which will loose the schmutz for skimming. When you start getting only white foam, add carrots, celery, parsnip, leek,onion and black peppercorns. Simmer, uncovered,very gently, but steadily, for 3 to 4 hours. Add the parley and the dill in the last 30 minutes, or you will get green soup. Remove from heat and cool to tepid. Refrigerate overnight.
  • 3. Remove most of the chicken fat that has hardened on top of the soup. Strain the soup through a large colander into another pot. Pick out any parsnip or carrots you may like to serve with the soup and discard your solids. In years past, the chicken was so flavorful that the meat was still delicious, but todays chicken, not so good. Mine as well pitch it. Reheat soup and serve as a clear broth or you can cook some noodles separately and add or for the ultimate experience, add matzo balls (Knaidlach). Will have a recipe you can follow for that, just search for Knaidlach.

CHICKEN SOUP (AUNT MARY'S PENICILLIN)



Chicken Soup (Aunt Mary's Penicillin) image

Mary Stacey shared this chicken soup recipe with The Times in 1990. The then 76-year-old aunt of Curtis Sliwa, of the Guardian Angels, made it regularly in her Howard Beach home, carrying the soup to Mr. Sliwa as he patrolled the subways. Mrs. Stacey believed that the magic of chicken soup is unleashed only when the carrots and onions are mashed into the broth. Strained, it makes an excellent broth for a myriad of soups. The strained broth can be frozen in small containers for future soups or in ice-cube trays to use in sauces.

Categories     dinner, lunch, soups and stews, main course, side dish

Time 3h45m

Yield Three quarts

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 4- to 5-pound chicken, quartered
2 chicken feet or 4 chicken wings or 1 turkey wing
1 clove of garlic, bruised
1 medium onion, peeled
2 carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 stalks celery cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 bunch parsley, tied
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns
4 quarts cold water

Steps:

  • In a large pot, place four quarts cold water. Add the chicken, garlic, onion, carrots, celery, parsley, bay leaf, salt and peppercorns and slowly bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for three hours, using a spoon to skim the soup as thoroughly as possible. Cool. (The soup can be strained at this point, to use as chicken broth. Mrs. Stacey proceeds with the next two steps.)
  • Strain the soup. Discard the onion, parsley, bay leaf and peppercorn, and save the other vegetables. Skin and debone the chicken and save the meat. Return the chicken meat, carrots, celery and garlic clove to the pot and bring back to a simmer, seasoning with additional salt or pepper to taste.
  • Serve the soup in big bowls, over pastina, rice or very thin spaghettini. The soup's curative powers are released only when the vegetables are mashed together in the bowl. Use a fork for mashing. Use a big spoon for eating.
