Mrs Blue Eyes - if it is such a whacking great chicken, how about this before you get to the Chicken Soup stage. This is courtesey of the Be-Ro cookbook I bought this morning on a very fractious trip to M*******s. |

I was just reading up on Chicken soup and apparently there's some enzyme that is released during cooking that is healing (don't ask me how) so looks like there's something in the old saying "Jewish penicillin. |

See there is truth in granny's remedys!!! I make my soup the same way except that I will add some lentils/barley and potatoes in small chunks. Also make chicken pies - can be frozen baked or unbaked. 1/2 lb chicken pieces mix into tin of Campbells Condensed chicken soup (do not dilute it) add if wished some frozen peas/tinned mushrooms plenty of ground pepper. |

I think we can all be guilty of being "samey" with our cooking from time to time, and I know I am always looking for new ideas. I like to watch the Channel 4 food programmes,and if there is something we both fancy, I print off the recipe from their site. |

Hi - I always boil the bones to make chicken soup, in a separate pan - sweat leeks in with a bit of butter for about 10 mins (cover with lid on a low heat add a bit of water if needed) and add stock, potatoes, chicken and anything else you fancy (canelloni beans are nice) and finally parsley - simmer for about 20 mins and it's done - you can always make some doughboys from suet too. |

I love parsnips cooked in with the chicken carcase and then fished out while you sort out the bones, you can blend it all together with other things and it is delicious. |

Well it's on and simmering although I am yet to be convinced that it will taste good. |
