👨‍🍳 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 and parsley root in large pieces, season with salt and bring back to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer at a gentle bubble uncovered about an hour and a half.
    ⚙ 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
    Pull the chicken into pieces and return the meat, without the skin, to the pot. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  3. 3
    Ladle the hot soup into bowls, with the vegetables and the meat.
