Time 3h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

20 cups water
1 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken
½ white onion, chopped
2 large carrots, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
6 large leeks, cut into 1-inch chunks, or more to taste
⅔ cup pearl barley
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a large stock pot; cook chicken in the boiling water until fully cooked, about 1 hour. Remove chicken, keeping water in stock pot, and cool; discard skin, pull meat from bones, and put bones back into water for stock. Add onion, carrots, and celery to water and boil, about 1 hour.
  • Soak leeks in a bowl of water, about 10 minutes; drain.
  • Remove bones and vegetables from stock using a slotted spoon. Add chicken meat, leeks, barley, celery seed, cloves, salt, and black pepper to stock and simmer until barley is tender and flavors have blended, about 1 hour.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup didn't turn out as thick as I wanted it to be. I ended up adding a little bit of cornstarch and it helped.

This soup was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper and it was much better.
