INSTRUCTIONS
I made this for our seder to serve with matzoh balls and no one even missed
the chicken! This is based on Mollie Katzen's "Not-Chicken Soup" (from her
"Still Life with Menu" ) with a few changes. She suggests adding a peeled
parsnip (which I didn't have) and a handful of mushrooms (which I loathe).
This is how I did it and it came out fantastic!
1. Combine everything in a large soup pot and bring to a boil. Lower heat
to simmer, partially cover.
2. Cook slowly for about 1 1/2 hours. Turn off the heat and let cool to
room temperature. Strain the vegetables through a sieve. Leave as is if you
want a clear broth or press the vegetables through the seive for a cloudy
but more robustly flavored broth.
3. Serve with matzoh balls, refrigerate, or freeze.
