Chicken soup: The story of "Jewish penicillin"

Some say the best cure is one of the oldest, and the tastiest: Chicken soup, which some consider "Jewish penicillin." "When I was making soup the other day, there was something about the aroma of chicken soup – it just felt good," she replied. Nathan (who some call the Jewish Julia Child) says chicken soup has been on the menu for centuries. "The first recorded mention of chicken soup was somebody named Dioscorides, who was an Army surgeon general in Rome," she said. "But then later, Maimonides, who was a Jewish philosopher-scientist, said that chicken soup was a panacea for so many different things: asthma, weight gain (like bone soup is today), leprosy."

USDA answers age-old question of whether poultry should be washed before cooking

Even cooking legends Julia Child and Jacques Pepin disagreed, but a new study from the Department of Agriculture has a definitive answer: Don't do it! "The sink could be a source of cross contamination," warns the USDA's Dr. Mindy Brashears. Using test kitchens, the USDA observed test subjects cooking chicken thighs, then preparing a salad. When they washed the chicken, 26 percent transferred bacteria to the ready-to-eat lettuce. Most didn't attempt to clean the sink in between, and even when they did 14 percent still were contaminated.
