CHICKEN SOUP (KOSHER FOR PESACH)

 

INGREDIENTS:   
  • Two 6-to-8-pound stewing hens, including neck and giblets but not the liver
  • 5 to 6 quarts water
  • 4 large onions, halved
  • 6 carrots, scraped and cut into large chunks
  • 15 parsley sprigs
  • 10 peppercorns, crushed
  • Dill
  • Parsley
INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Remove the fat from the cavities of the hens and set aside for rendering 
  2. Place one hen in a stockpot with the water and half of the vegetables. The ingredients should barely be covered with water.
  3. Bring to a boil and immediately lower the heat. Skim the foam that rises to the surface and adjust the heat so that only a bubble or two appears on the surface of the liquid. Add the parsley sprigs and peppercorns, partially cover the pot, and simmer for about 2 hours, skimming occasionally. The hen should be tender but not falling apart.
  4. Remove the hen to a large platter, and when it is cool enough to handle remove the meat from the bones. Cook for another hour or so. Strain the soup into a large bowl and discard everything in the strainer. Cool the soup and refrigerate overnight. Remove the fat that has hardened on the surface.
  5. For a really superb soup, start again with the just-made defatted chicken stock, the remaining vegetables, the second hen, and more water if necessary to cover the ingredients.
  6. Serve with chopped dill, parsley, and kneidlach or mandlen.
