Mediterranean Chicken Soup

Hey Chez,
ReplyDeleteI was snooping around and came across your Tanner's Onion Ring post. When were you a Chef there and which location? My wife (girlfriend at the time) used to be a waitress there.
the soup looks greeat as does the dog below. I ordered a lifetime supply (3 pkgs) of the hog casings today - and plan to take my maided voyage next week.
ReplyDeleteI've been hemming and hawing today so didn't have a clue what to fix for dinner. I have leftover broth and leftover chicken, won't be near as good as this one but we'll be hungry and not notice maybe! Thanks for helping me decide what's for dinner!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I have to try broth with whole cloves of garlic. I usually put in some garlic after smashing it, but have never used whole. If you don't mind sharing, about how many cups of broth to 20 cloves?
ReplyDeleteprobably about a gallon of broth
