Well I am currently boiling the bones from last night. Am I correct that to turn the remnants of that into chicken soup I make a rue then add milk (much like making cheese sauce) but then add the stock and chicken from the earlier boiling... ???
Can anyone give me a few tips or tell me if the above is correct before I poison the family??
Thanks x
You could add a few flavouring vegetables to your butter before you add the flour for the roux. A small amount of celery, twice as much of carrot and onion, do not brown of course. As you say use the chicken stock with milk, you should use bouqet garni a faggot of your favorite herbs... bayleaf, a few cracked white pepper corns and sneak in a little dry sherry.
Pass through a sieve, add your finely diced cooked chicken swirl in some fresh cream and sprinke on some very finely diced parsley.
