Soup

Great Grandma’s Chicken Noodle Soup

I have made this soup several times!!! Yum Yum I use a rotisserie chicken in place of the fryer chicken

 

Great Grandma’s Chicken Noodle Soup

1 broiler – fryer chicken cut up
2 quarts water
1 onion chopped
2 Chicken Bouillon cubes
2 celery stalks diced
2 carrots diced
2 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 ½ cup fresh or frozen green beans
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper

Noodles:

1 cup flour
2 or 3 tablespoons milk
1 egg beaten
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon butter or oleo softened
¼ teaspoon baking powder

Soup: In a large kettle, cook chicken in water. Cool broth & skin off fat. Skin and bone chicken and cut into bite size pieces – add to broth with remaining ingredients except noodles. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 1 hour.

Noodles: place flour on a bread board – make a well in the center – stir together remaining ingredients – pour into well. Working the mixture with your hands fold flour into wet ingredients until dough can be rolled into a ball. Knead for 5-6 minutes. Cover and let stand 10 minutes. On floured surface roll dough out to a square 1/16-1/8 inch thick and cut into ¼ inch wide stripes – cook noodles in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes. Drain and add to soup just before serving.
