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 turnip in large pieces and the bay leaves and the peppercorns, season with salt and bring back to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer at a gentle bubble with a lid 90 minutes.
⚙ 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.
