Wakame Soup with Snow Peas and Ginger

A detoxifying soup packed with delicious, nutritious wakame

"The detoxifying element of this meal is the Wakame Soup with Snow Peas and Ginger. Once after a tour, I was so exhausted I had to stay in bed for a few days. During that period I ate nothing but Wakame Soup and - to my surprise - I recovered quickly".
