Method

For the Chicken Broth

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broth

    In a large pot, add the whole chicken, chopped carrots, celery, quartered onion, smashed garlic cloves, bay leaves, thyme, black peppercorns, and salt to taste. Pour in 10 cups of water.

  2. 2

    Cook the Broth

    Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface.

  3. 3

    Strain the Broth

    Once cooked, remove the chicken and set it aside to cool. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve and discard the solids. Set the broth aside.

For the Handmade Noodles

  1. 4

    Prepare Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 tsp of salt. Make a well in the center and crack the two eggs into it. Add 1 tablespoon of water.

  2. 5

    Knead the Dough

    Mix the ingredients together with a fork until the dough starts to come together. Transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  3. 6

    Roll Out Noodles

    Divide the dough into four pieces. Roll each piece out thinly using a rolling pin. Cut into desired noodle shape (e.g., strips or squares).

For the Soup Assembly

  1. 7

    Combine Chicken and Broth

    Once the broth has cooled slightly, bring it back to a simmer. Add the shredded cooked chicken into the pot.

  2. 8

    Cook the Noodles

    Add the handmade noodles to the simmering broth and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until they float and are cooked through.

  3. 9

    Serve the Soup

    Ladle the soup into bowls, and garnish with chopped parsley and green onions. Serve hot.
