NUTRITIVEANTI-INFLAMMATORY IMMUNE SUPPORTGUT HEALTH Soup & Broth Season is On! ... Whatever your base be sure to add in various herbs and medicinal mushrooms Check out the recipe, pic and inspration from @herbaltidebotanicals Herbal Medicinal Mushroom Broth "One of my favorite things about fall & winter is cozying up in the kitchen and cooking all sorts of grounding & warming recipes, especially medicinal broths! Medicinal mushrooms have been consumed for thousands of years, utilized as a nutritional powerhouse with a particular effect on immunological activity. Medicinal mushrooms are packed with beta glucans, Vit. D, B vitamins, and amino acids. I typically prepare my mushrooms in a double extraction tincture to get the most potent medicine, but turkey tail, reishi, and Chaga are also some of my favorite additions to a soup stock. Beta glucans (complex carbohydrates responsible for immune system function) are water soluble, so the immunological benefits of turkey tail when used in broths or teas are quite magical Turkey Tail Celery Carrot Parsley Nettle Rosemary Milky oats Oatstraw Dandelion leaves Turmeric root Nori Bay leaves Apple cider vinegar (at least 1-2tbsp) TIP: Make sure to add apple cider vinegar to pull all the minerals & essential nutrients from your herbs. Don’t skip this step! This is also important if you’re making a bone broth; ACV is crucial in breaking down the collagen and creates a much more potent stock!" What are some of your favorite ingredients for soup stocks & broths?

Wild tonics & elixirs Hot frothy medicinal drinks is what will take me through this winter methinks... @northernforagerscollective shared their Elixir creation and thoughts after taking the online elixir making class with us and we are inspired by their implementation, creativity and what they had to say: I feel like it has given me permission to play with all of the plant and flower infused honeys and roots and leaves I’ve gathered and dried all summer long. It also ...gives me a chance to slow down and get to know the flavour profiles of my plant kin and consider the medicine that each plant has to offer before combining them into steamy liquid soul nourishing drinks. Here I combined ground fennel with mallow and dandelion root and sweetened it with spruce cone honey. Mix it all with a source of fat, a pinch of salt and some hot water and alchemy happens #elixirlife See more

Once translucent add in the mushrooms, thyme and cup of the broth and cook until the mushrooms soften. Then add all the broth and bring to a boil. Lower and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes.
