Steps:
- Wash the chicken and put it into the big pot (cut into smaller parts if necessary).
- Cover the chicken with cold water and bring to an almost-boil (the soup CANNOT start boiling otherwise it will lose its taste).
- If you notice white/dark foam gather at the top of the soup, collect it with a tablespoon and throw it away. It's called szumy and it's completely normal that you have it in your soup.
- When there is no more szumy left, peel or wash all the vegetables and put them into the rosol soup.
- Add herbs and spices (without salt and pepper).
- Let the soup simmer for 2-10 hours. The longer you cook, the better the soup will taste.
- When the rosol soup is ready, strain all the ingredients out of the broth.
- Add salt and pepper.
- Cook noodles (or other add-ons) separately and put them in the bowls.
- Pour the rosol soup into the bowls and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

Steps:
- Gather all your vegetables. Peel carrots, parsnip, and celery. Clean and trim your leek and wash your parsley. Heat up a skillet and add unpeeled onions in to get some burn marks.
- Place chicken pieces, beef bone, allspice, and bay leaves into a large pot.
- Add vegetables and fill the pot with water. Add vinegar and about 1-2 tablespoons of salt (you will finish seasoning once the broth is cooked)
- Set it on medium to low heat. Do not boil it! Let it simmer for two hours. A few times during the cooking, skim off anything that accumulates on the surface.
- Check for seasoning, add salt and pepper to your liking or chicken cubes, magi or Vegeta (see recipe notes).
- Boil the noodles separately, according to instructions. Once cooked, rinse with cold water to remove starch. Add noodles to a bowl.

POLISH CHICKEN SOUP
This is my Polish family's chicken soup recipe which has been a Sunday tradition in our family forever. I only serve this with homemade noodles, and if you have the patience to make your own noodles, this is the soup to have them with. I like to get this started early on Sunday morning, and I also like when the kids wake up and say "smells like Sunday".. Yes, there is curry powder in the stock, and if you don't like curry powder, I suggest to you that there is not a substantial curry flavor to the broth that one would say "tastes like curry", because it doesn't! It just hightens the flavor I think.

Steps:
- Cover the chicken with water in a stock pot and bring to a boil; reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 30 minutes, skimming the protein foam that forms.
- After the foam has subsided, add the bouillon, curry powder, allspice and bay leaf; simmer uncovered, for 2 hours.
- Remove the chicken and allow to cool.
- Remove the allspice and bay leaf with a slotted spoon and discard.
- Add the onion, carrots and celery to the stock and simmer for another hour or until the vegetables are tender.
- Once the chicken is cooled, remove skin and bones and discard; add the meat to the stock.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add the parsley; stir.
- Serve with egg noodles.
- Note: I like to serve the noodles seperately and let each person ladle the soup over their noodles, for I find that if you mix the noodles into the soup, it eventually sucks up all the broth.
