Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

This is a surprisingly simple, yet tasty, soup.
Put oil in small soup bowl. Put soy sauce in bowl. Put chives/whatever in bowl. Pour boiling hot water over top. Let sit about a minute. Serve.
This doesn't sound like it should work, but it does somehow.
Possible garnishment could include a sprinkle of white (not black!) pepper or a sprinkle of sesame seeds, but honestly neither is needed.
This sounds delicious, I love onions! I bet it's great for hangovers because of all the salt!
It is far more tasty than it has any right being. When I first heard this recipe I thought I was getting punked. But I tried it and ... yeah. It's actually really nice.
And it's really easy to extend. A bit of minced pork. Or break in an egg and make it an egg drop soup. Jazz it up with assorted pickles or kimchi or the like. It's a strong base as well as a great standalone.
And ... I don't get hangovers so I don't know about that role, but it would certainly hydrate well after a night of drinking, so ... probably as a cure or even a preventative?
I did some digging. There is an actual hangover remedy based on this simple soup. It involves adding one extra ingredient: just a pinch of baking soda (like maybe 0.5g of it). Apparently this turns an already good electrolyte balancer into magic.
As I said I have never had a hangover so I can't attest to that, but someone I know who does get hung over knew about this soup and about this specific alteration. He said it doesn't change the flavour noticeably but it settles the stomach like nobody's business.
That's good to know!!
