PHO BO (VIETNAMESE BEEF-AND-NOODLE SOUP)
In Vietnam, where there is enough rain, heat and sun to grow almost anything in large quantity, herbs are treated much like what most Americans consider "eating" greens. They sometimes form the bulk of salads and soups and are often used as wrappers, seasonings and condiments. Here, a pile of fresh herbs are served alongside this classic Vietnamese beef soup, so diners can add to taste. Basil, cilantro and mint are critical, but chervil, lovage, parsley, shiso, dill, marjoram and other tender herbs work, too.

Steps:
- Soak rice noodles in hot water to cover.
- Meanwhile, combine stock, star anise, cinnamon, ginger, onion and cloves in saucepan; turn heat to high. When mixture boils, turn heat to low, and cover. Let cook, undisturbed, for 20 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how much time you have (the longer the cooking, the deeper the flavor). Strain, and return to saucepan; turn heat to medium.
- Bring pot of water to boil. Drain noodles, add them to pot, and boil for 30 seconds; drain well. Warm 4 large bowls by filling them with hot water; discard water. Divide noodles among bowls.
- Turn heat under soup to medium, and add beef; stir once, and then turn off heat. (The meat is traditionally left rare; if you want to cook it more, go ahead, but these slices will cook through in less than 2 minutes.) Add fish sauce or soy sauce and plenty of pepper to the soup. Taste, and add salt or more seasoning, if necessary.
- Top noodles with broth and meat, and then bring to the table. Serve, passing lime wedges, scallions, chilies and herbs at the table, so that everyone can add them to taste.

BOTT BOI PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH POT PIE
This recipe is my great grandmother's. An authentic Pennsylvania Dutch recipe. It is not a stew and not covered with crust. The recipe can be made with beef or chicken. I cannot think of a better comfort food recipe. Very simple to prepare. Dad fondly called this recipe "Tire patches".

SIMPLE STOVETOP AMISH CHICKEN
In my family, we call this simple stove top recipe for chicken Chicken Pot Pie. It is not very pie like, but a very classic German/Amish dish. This is one of my very favorites, I learned to make it with my mom when I was little, this will be the first time I wrote it down! I have had it before with carrots, which I do enjoy, but I prefer it best when it is very simple. This is a very inexpensive dish.

Steps:
- Place the chicken into a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover it. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook over high heat until chicken is easily removed from the bone, about 35 minutes. Turn the chicken over once during this time so it will cook evenly. Cutting the chicken into pieces can speed up the cooking process a bit.
- While the chicken is cooking, cut two of the potatoes into large chunks, and the other potato into very small cubes.
- When the chicken is cooked, remove it from the water. Pull off the skin, and place all of the chicken meat in a separate dish. Pull the meat apart in long shreds. Reserve the cooking water in a separate container. Discard chicken skin and bones.
- Pour the chicken broth into the pot, and add potatoes, chicken, salt, and pepper. Pour in 2 to 3 cups of the reserved water. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 15 minutes, until potatoes start to soften. Add 3 more cups of the chicken water, and the noodles. Season with salt-free seasoning blend, salt, and pepper. Cover, and simmer over medium-low heat until the noodles are tender and small potato pieces have dissolved.

PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH CHICKEN BOT BOI
When we were kids we lived in Lancaster Pennsylvania for awhile. My dad loved that area and he loved the Pennsylvania Dutch and how they lived. Most of all he loved their foods! Making "Chicken Pot Pie" this past week made me remember a dish dad got from the ladies in Lancaster. Mom would make this all the time for him and it was so incredibly yummy. Bot Boi are actually the noodles used in the dish. There is no crust in this recipe,thats in chicken pot pie, this is a chicken stew basically that is absolutely amazing. If you cannot find the correct noodles (kluski) in your grocery store I have a recipe to make them homemade.

Steps:
- Cook chicken in water with celery, carrot, 1 onion, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Simmer it with the lid on until done, for about an hour.This is the stews broth. Take the chicken out to cool.
- Skim the fat off of the broth. Strain the broth and discard the celery, carrot, onion, and bay leaf. Taste broth for seasoning and add additional salt and pepper if needed. I also add garlic powder but thats a matter of taste.
- When the chicken is cool enough to handle, take all the meat from the bones and cut it into bite sized pieces. Discard skin and bones. Bring chicken broth to a boil in a big pot. Add chicken. When the broth is boiling, layer the potpie squares into the broth, one by one. Alternate with layers of potato and onion and carrots. Push down each layer gently, so the liquid will cover it.
- Turn down the heat so it will simmer. Cover the pot. Stir gently every so often, so the noodle squares will not stick together, for about 20 minutes.
- Add parsley and saffron. Stir gently. The saffron will give the broth a gorgeous yellow color and an intensely unique and subtle flavor. Simmer for five more minutes. Make paste from flour and water. Add this to broth to thicken. Cook and stir gently another five minutes until a bit thicker.
CHICKEN POPEYES (BOTT BOI)
I have been looking for a recipe my mom used to make us as kids, for a long time and someone helped me out in the Zaar forums recently and told me the real name of it. This is what I came up with after reviewing many recipes and concocting one of my own. I am thinking the noodles aren't quite what I remember so I will be tweaking them and may repost a 2nd revised recipe later. Since this is a stew it freezes beautifully, and it makes a lot so I serve half of it and freeze the rest for a quick dinner some other time.
