Grandma's Chicken Soup
Preperation & Cooking Time: 30 mins
Ingredients:
1 whole organic Chicken or ask our butchers to cut it into pieces
1 large Onion – diced to 1cm x 2 cm
2 large Carrots – peeled & sliced 1cm thick
3 sticks Celery – sliced 1cm thick
Massel Chicken Style stock cubes
1 Packet long thin EGG noodles (not pasta!)
½ Cup finely chopped parsley
Freshly ground pepper
Water

Wash whole chicken inside and out and trim any excess fat. Put into a large stock pot and just cover with water (approx 3 litres). Bring to a boil and after a couple of minutes, start skimming off all the white bubbly bits that come to the top. Skim for about 3 minutes, till water is basically clear. Add Massel chicken stock cubes and onion. Stir, then add carrots & celery, stir again.

The secret of this soup is the love you put into it! Turn hotplate down to as low as possible and simmer for one hour with a lid on. Stir soup every 10 minutes or so. It should be bubbling VERY gently. After an hour put in about one third of the packet of egg noodles, crushed up as you put them in. Cook for further 15 mins still on very low and stir every 5 minutes. Just before serving, add parsley and grind some pepper into the soup and stir through. Use tongs to tear chicken meat from bones and place in the bottom of a large soup bowl, then ladle soup & vegies over the top, making sure to get plenty of noodles from the bottom & parsley into each serve.

THE MEAT-ING PLACE - Brisbane's Leading Organic Butcher & Produce Supplier

We would like to take this opportunity to introduce our company, The Meat-ting Place, to you and tell you something about us, our products and our services.

Steve and Jenelle Povey commenced retailing Organic Meat 14 years ago because we believe in the Organic philosophy of providing safe, healthy, natural and nutritious meats, just as nature intended. At that time, we were sourcing Organic farmers who were struggling to get into the Brisbane market.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

This place smells like a Tuscan evening - herbs on the table and fresh, well cooked meat in the kitchen.

We like to say a huge "Thank You" to all our wonderful customers who liked us on facebook and entered our competition.

We had so many excellent comments and we'd like to share a couple of them with you:

"Have to say guys... I am so grateful for the products you provide us herein Brisbane.... Organic is becoming more and more important with the GMO issues and the way animals and produce is cultivated... It scares me more that people are not informed about this more. I am always trying to source new options, and after living in the USA fr the last ten years where you can get everything organic very easily, it is hard in Australia... So THANK YOU for existing and helping me on my quest for great health!!!!"


"I would just like to thank the staff at the McDowall store who took the time to answer my questions and ease my mind this morning. Good quality meat is guaranteed if the butcher is open and confident in what they are selling. I am easing my way out of vegetarianism and don't think I will ever look back after finding you guys and your amazing products! I am telling everrrrryone about you! "

"Cooked up bbq steak and sausages tonight, normally no one in our house eats sausages, but they disappeared faster than a snow cone in Queensland!"
