Authentic Jewish Yiddish Chicken Soup


This is the way to make soup-you can alter the recipe a little here and there but this is the best. Make sure that you include the chicken neck ( and the cleaned feet! ) in the soup. Use kosher chicken and canned soup-its tastes better. My recipe adaptation uses skinned chicken so there is a lot less fat to be skimmed off in this soup. If you want very clear soup then cool first, strain the soup through cheesecloth and reheat, cut up chicken and vegetables and add back--but i served the soup as is.
