+
+Whenever I get sick I immediately crave for some chicken soup. This is a chicken
+soup recipe that sure makes me feel better even if I am not sick.
+
+<!-- more -->
+
+## Prerequisite
+
+I use the broth [in this recipe](/food/fragrant-chicken-broth) as base for this
+soup. I also use the chicken meat from that same recipe.
+
+## Ingredients
+
+This is for two adult portions:
+
+* Pulled chicken
+* 1 liter chicken broth
+* 2 small potatoes
+* 1/2 carrot
+* 2 handfuls of rice noodles
+* 1/4 onion
+* Cilantro
+* 1 Lime\*
+* Chile de árbol\*
+
+\* Optional
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. Pour the broth to a cooking pot.
+2. Peel and cut the carrot and potatoes into small pieces. Add them to the pot.
+3. Simmer for about 20–30 minutes or until the carrots and potatoes are soft.
+4. Add the rice noodles and chicken and cook for another 5 minutes.
+5. Serve the soup.
+6. Chop the onions and cilantro and top the soup with them.
+7. Add some lime juice to taste, if you like.
+8. If you like spicy, crush some dried chile de árbol and add it as well.
+9. Enjoy, and if you've got a cold, get better soon!

+![Fragrant Chicken Broth](chicken-broth.jpg)
+
+Chicken broth can be used as the base for many delicious dishes like chicken
+soup. This is my take of an aromatic chicken broth.
+
+<!-- more -->
+
+## Ingredients
+
+The quantities will depend on how much broth you want to make:
+
+* Chicken pieces with bones\* and skin\* (\*very important!)
+* Bay leaves
+* Onion
+* Garlic
+* Allspice or black peppercorns
+* Parsley
+* Thyme
+* Salt
+* Olive oil
+* Rosemary
+* Carnation
+* Ginger
+* A pinch of curcuma
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. Add some olive oil and chicken pieces to a big pot.
+2. Cut the onion into big pieces and add it.
+3. Add the rest of the ingredients on top to taste and depending on the quantity
+   you want to cook.
+4. Pour as much water as needed after having added all the ingredients.
+5. Heat the pot until the water is boiling and simmer for 1–2 hours.
+6. Strain the stock into a different container. You can dispose of the
+   vegetables. Use the chicken meat for some other dish.
+
+That's really it. Again, the proportions depend on your tastes and how much
+broth you want to make. Next I will be writing a recipe on chicken soup using
+this broth and the chicken that was used for this broth as a base. You can
+check out the chicken soup recipe [here](/food/fragrant-chicken-broth).
+
+I also remove the skin and bones and use the chicken meat as pulled chicken for
+sandwiches or other recipes besides chicken soup.
