.plugToRequest(req, res): unplug()

Load the user cookies so you can do server-rendering and match the same result.
Also send back to the user the new cookies.
Work with connect or express.js by using the cookieParser middleware first.
Use const unplug = plugToRequest(req, res) just before your renderToString.

Returns unplug() function so it stops setting cookies on the response.

.setRawCookie(cookies)

Load the user cookies so you can do server-rendering and match the same result.
Use setRawCookie(headers.cookie) just before your renderToString.
Make sure it is the raw string from the request headers.
