The Real Deal Tom Kha Gai Soup

Exceptional soup begins with exceptional broth, and that's where this soup began.

Step 1: Make the New York Times recipe for "A Superior Chicken Soup" here.*

Step 2: Use the broth from the NYT in The Kitchn's recipe: "How to Make Tom Kha Gai: The Best Method for Most Home Cooks" here.

Aside from a trip to Thailand, this soup will taste close enough to the Real Deal to knock your flip flops off - it's definitely a stellar dish!

My Paleo Marin Rating: 5 Persimmons*

*Note: Prepare stock 1-3 days before making the Tom Kha Gai.

*My Paleo Marin Rating between 1-5 Persimmons

I try out these recipes so you don't have to (and modify them for Paleo where possible). The rating will reflect my opinion of the final result in terms of taste, ease of preparation, nutrition, and sometimes, cost.
