👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
Rinse the chicken under cold water. Peel and roughly chop the carrots, parsley root, and celery root. Peel the garlic cloves. Halve the onion and char the cut side on a dry pan or directly over a flame until browned to impart color and flavor to the broth.
💡 Профессиональные советы: Charring the onion is a key step for authentic color and depth of flavor. - 2
In a large pot, combine the whole chicken, chopped vegetables, charred onion, garlic cloves, and half a bunch of fresh parsley. Add the black peppercorns and 1 tablespoon of salt. Pour in 4 liters of cold water.
- 3
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 2 hours, or until the chicken is very tender. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface during cooking to ensure a clear broth.
- 4
While the soup simmers, prepare the homemade noodles. In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, flour, and olive oil until a firm dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- 5
Roll out the rested dough very thinly on a floured surface. Let it dry slightly for about 10-15 minutes, then roll it up tightly and slice into thin noodles of your desired width.

Once the chicken is cooked, carefully remove it from the pot. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean pot. Discard the cooked vegetables and chicken carcass (or reserve the meat for another use).
💡 Профессиональные советы: For an even clearer broth, you can strain it twice. - 7
Bring the strained broth back to a boil. Add the homemade noodles and cook for about 5-10 minutes, or until they are al dente. Season with additional salt to taste.
- 8
Serve the hot soup in bowls. You can optionally add some of the cooked chicken meat (shredded or diced) back into the soup. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
💡 Профессиональные советы: Alternatively, the noodles can be cooked separately in salted water to prevent the soup from becoming cloudy, and then added to individual bowls before serving.
