Chicken Noodle soup




We don't fiddle much on the roofs here in Lower Cranfield but we do enjoy a good Chicken Noodle soup.  The Chicken Noodle soup is comfort food supreme, the nurse maid's ointment for all ages. Jewish in tradition, the noodle soup has its roots in the old testament, a symbolic representation of Noah's parting of the red sea. 
For a real good Chicken noodle soup, make sure the stock is "en royale", I boil mine for 7 hrs. De scum regularly until you have a liquid the colour of unhealthy urine.  Add  noodles and dumplings at ones leisure.

Waitrose have a chicken stock which will provide a competent alternative if a little salty. Noodling is a "jazz" term for idle fingering.
