👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Put the chicken and the water in a large pot, bring to a boil and skim off the foam with a spoon. Add the onion, carrot, parsley root, celery and garlic in large pieces, season with salt and black pepper and bring back to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer at a gentle bubble with a lid 75–90 minutes, until the chicken is completely tender.
    ⚙ SimmeringStoveLarge pot
    💡Skim the foam that rises at the first boil, and after that only a gentle bubble: a hard boil makes the soup cloudy.
    💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
  2. 2
    Chop the parsley and dill, add to the pot and cook about a quarter of an hour more.
