Tender at the Bone is the title of a memoir by Jewish food icon Ruth Reichl.
It doubles as a culinary storyteller's nod to the alchemy of ingredients that make the Soup Love, an Amy Markman original. Fueled by a foodie father, and a healer's heart, Markman re-imagined the classic care package. While raising two sons, the Jewish food fairy of Virginia Beach cast her spell on family, friends, and friends of friends with her thoughtful chicken soup and comfort food deliveries. Facing surgery or a serious illness meant receiving a delicious treat that was equal parts comfort and healing—and indulgent surprise.
