The eternal cry of every Jewish Grandmother................. "GIVE HIM SOME CHICKEN SOUP" Chickn soup ! The panacea of anything from the common cold upwards. If it doesn't help,........Well! It won't hurt. Read more ************************************** O.K. So you have decided what to do with your chicken , Now what do you do with the feet and the neck and the wings ? The Jews of Eastern Europe used everything exept the cackle. They just didn't have anything else. Try this! You'll thank me! See less
Ingredients
- 3kg chicken parts. The original recipe called for feet but I usually use wings. You can also use a whole chicken. shopping list
- 2 large onions shopping list
- 4 carrots shopping list
- 2 tablespoons of ground ginger. (It sounds like a lot but it isnt.) shopping list
- A few bayleaves shopping list
- a few peppercorns shopping list
- 1/2 cup of chopped parsley. shopping list
- water shopping list
How to make it
- cut onions coarsely . (1/8 th's)
- Peel carrots and cut into segments . (about 5c"m each)
- Spread ginger over all the pieces of chicken
- Put everything in a large pot.
- Fill with water and bring to the boil.
- With a spoon remove all the "stuff" that floats to the top.
- Set flame to low and partially cover pot.
- Cook for at least two hours . (the longer it cooks, the more taste you get).
- Remove pieces of chicken from pot.
- *****************************************************************
- SUGGESTIONS:
- If you cook it long enough you won't need to add anything
- Add soup powder to reduce cooking time.
- If you use a whole chicken, It is a meal in itself after you remove it from the soup.
- If you use wings, Put them under the grill for a minute or two, (DELICIOUS)
- Have you ever eaten the meat right off the neck? TRY IT!
