Tip from the kitchen

If you like it thicker, blend a third of the soup and stir it back in.

For bathing days. Before a bathing day, the bathhouse rule is: eat light the day before, nothing fatty, finish by 20:00. This soup is the classic meal for the evening before. How a bathing day works

What “alkaline” means here. Alkaline-forming and acid-forming describe how a food is classified in the acid-base table (PRAL logic) — a calculated value, not a statement about effects in the body. The 80/20 rule of thumb — 80% alkaline-forming foods, 20% good acid-forming foods — is our experience-based model from the alkaline kitchen, not a diet plan. Bathmaster, not a doctor: these recipes are cooking, not therapy. Experience-based model
