    Yup. Home cooking it is.
    1. after you turn off the fire, you can break an egg into the pot, and quickly stir it with a fork until long threads of egg are lightly cooked by the hot soup - this enriches the soup, both in taste and in "substance".
    2. You could add quarter-teaspoon of turmeric into the stock, and that would both add a wonderful "background" flavor, but also paint the soup yellow-orange, and make it more beautiful (less pale). It's very delicate - try it!
    3. Leftover chicken thigh or leg coarsely diced into the soup will also enrich it and make it "meaty" and filling.
    These 3 additions won't add much time or complexity to the preparation - but will greatly leverage this great soup

    This is very close to the standard “sick food” I serve to anyone in my family who is feeling ill, especially any kind of GI upset. But it also works wonders on heartbreak, calculus exam anxiety, and rainy day blues. It’s of course delicious, as good quality chicken stock with tiny pasta and grated cheese will be. Scallions may be added as requested. I think it’s called pastina in brodo in Italian, but my very non-Italian mother served it to me as a child when I was sick. So I’ve got the same strong nostalgia for the recipe that Jacques does.
