  • It's a great Cooking, I really love it. Thanks a lot. Shalom and God you and your family.
  • I also want to humbly suggest you, that I first put chicken in a pot, then I add the onions, garlic, parsnip, green bell pepper, leeks, (all these are the veggies you don't want in your bowl later on, when you eat the soup), but they cook alongside the chicken for the flavor, and also I add salt, pepper. Chicken with the bone in, cooks approximately for an 1 & 1/2. When the chicken is cooked, I get another pot with a big sifter in it. I pour the content of the soup through the large strainer into another pot. Then I do it again, after I rinse the original pot where the chicken was cooked with the water, and again, I use this time a fine strainer, (that catches all impurities, that still might be in the soup, so your broth will be completely clear. When the clear broth is in the pot, I bring it to a boil again, and add all the veggies I wanna see in my bowl, (such as; carrots, celery, parsley, dill) and I cook it til it's nice and soft, about 20 minutes. Then I pick the chicken meat from the bones, and add them into a soup, and cook another 5-10 minutes. In the mean time, In another pot while the veggies are cooking, I cook noodles, or pasta of my choice, or matzah balls, in a well salted water. Then drain them, put a bit of an olive oil or butter over them, mix the pasta, and serve it with the soup! Bone appetite! Shalom!

    Looks delicious! Just a tip- Instead of going fishing for bones you can put them into a Sack n-Boil bag, and then once you are ready to take out the bones all you have to do is take it out and you're done. Nothing is left behind accidentally, and no extra veggies come out in the process.
  • @gemmaminer
    I love this soup. Dill and parsley are great additions to this recipe. I will definitely try this. Thanks.
  • @mabn8308
    Best is right, but why? must be the fresh dill? This recipe uses the same ingredients as other chicken soups I have made but none had the wow taste factor of your chicken soup. It really is the best ever. Bless you for sharing
  • @jaycee157
    Shalom. This recipe looks great will try it. Thanks for sharing.
  • Amazing, my mouth was salivating, Nothing is better than fresh. Thank you so very much. Bless you and your family.
  • @richardhitt779
    I cant wait to make this recipe. Thank you, and God Bless you and your family.
  • @Less1leg2
    I found the inner leafs and stocks of celery the sweetest and less bitter. The outer ring of celery tends to carry over a tart or bitter taste. I never used fresh dill before, thanks for that idea.
  • @otterkarman8740
    Awesome. Mum done this almost same recipe, but used to cook the washed chicken whole, after a couple hours simmer would remove the chicken skin, plus, at serving we always added a squeeze of lemon in the bowl, very healthy power soup I'm from London with Turkish-Cypriot parents with various ancestry DNA from Turkish-Russian-Middle eastern background including 10% Ashkenazi Jewish. The soup really is that awesome, all should try and good health.
  • Great to watch the easy way you explain how to prepare and cook this soup. Thank you 😊
  • He didn’t wash his hands after handling chicken and totally contaminated his bowl of salt and pepper mill. I use double the chicken and no broth - just water. Also, the foam at the top is not fat - it’s a collection of impurities that any chef will tell you to skim.
  • @michswags
