I want to do a chicken one next, anyone got a favourite chicken soup
recipe?

Every time I have made it I have mostly followed my grandmother's
recipe. The chicken would be an old "boiler" cooked slowly of course.
Home made stock. Soup always had corn in it She used to scrape the
corn off the cobs though, I use canned, lol. Potatoes, carrots, onions
and fresh peas. I always nixed the potatoes. Garlic wasn't anything my
nan ever used. I don't know anyone back in the day who did use it now I
come to think of it.
