Chicken Noodle Soup with Fresh Ginger and Spring Onion

Inspired by techniques from America's Test Kitchen and NYT Cooking.

Chicken noodle · Ginger · International

This version follows the classic chicken noodle soup method, but simmers sliced fresh ginger and garlic in the broth instead of thyme and finishes with spring onion, coriander and lime instead of parsley and lemon. The result is gently warming, fragrant and fresh.

Why this label?

High Protein

37.2 g protein for 416 kcal = 8.9 g per 100 kcal, so protein gives about 36% of the energy. High Protein needs at least 20% (5 g per 100 kcal), the condition in the Annex to EU Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. How we decide

EU nutrition claims

  • Low saturated fat: 0.6 g saturated fat per 100 ml, 5.2% of energy (limits ≤ 0.75 g and ≤ 10%)
  • Low sugars: 1.6 g sugars per 100 ml (limit ≤ 2.5 g)

Per 100 ml of the finished dish, worked out from the nutrition per serving and the lowest likely cooked weight (about 392 ml a serving), so the true values are, if anything, lower. Thresholds from the Annex to EU Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. How we decide
