Step cooking
- Pour 3 liters of clean cold water into a large pot and put on fire. Salt to taste.
- We cut one small chicken along the breast and unfold.
- Rinse under running water, remove all skin and put in a pan with water. Cook the chicken for 40 minutes over medium heat.
- We clean, wash, and cut into wide rings one large onion.
- Peel 2 carrots from the peel and cut into small circles. Remove the celery root and cut it into pieces.
- We put a non-stick frying pan on the stove and put onions and carrots on it, let them bake well without using vegetable oil. Do not worry if the vegetables begin to turn brown, this will only add flavor to our soup.
- We put chopped celery into the broth.
- We bind together 1 bay leaf, 2-3 branches of fresh parsley, 2 branches of thyme, 2-3 branches of green celery and wrap a leaf from a stem of leek. All this should resemble a small bouquet.
- In a frying pan for vegetables, put 4-5 peas of allspice. Fry for 1 minute and transfer all the contents to the pan.
- When the broth boils, we put in it our bouquet of herbs.
- When foam forms on the broth, be sure to remove it with a slotted spoon, otherwise the soup will eventually be cloudy and not so beautiful.
- Wash the celery root, peel and cut into strips.
- Peel the onions and cut into half rings.
- Wash carrots, peel and shred with small straws.
- We put a frying pan on the stove and pour 30 grams of olive oil. When the oil is heated, put chopped onion, carrots and celery root into it. Fry until cooked.
- We wash 3 fresh tomatoes and remove the stalk from them. We make a cross-shaped incision on each fruit and fill it with boiling water.
- Remove the peel from the tomatoes, cut, remove all the flesh and seeds and cut into a small cube.
- Cut 200 grams of porcini mushrooms into plates and add to the pan when the vegetables on it have already become soft.
- When the broth is ready, filter it through cheesecloth or a clean towel, and remove the chicken and let it cool.
- We disassemble the cooled chicken into pieces, separate the meat from the bones and cut into small strips.
- We pour the broth over a smaller pan and set it again not on the stove. Add the chopped meat and let the soup boil.
- Wash and dry 3 cabbage leaves from moisture, chop them and add to the boiling broth.
- Add salt and black pepper to the soup to taste.
- Boil the soup for 2-3 minutes and add the fried vegetables with mushrooms.
- Peel and finely chop 2-3 cloves of garlic.Wash, dry from moisture and shred 3 sprigs of parsley, 2 sprigs of cilantro and 2 sprigs of green celery.
- Add tomatoes, garlic and herbs, mix, cover, turn off the stove and let it brew for 5-7 minutes.
