Recipe Introduction
recipe by LAURIE
Love the funny names that the British have for their foods. This one is really good and rich tasting! I will boil the chicken etc in the evening then chill the broth overnite. Next day I will skim and put it all together and then eat it!! Prep time includes chilling, cooking includes all the simmering.
