    Down-Home Diabetic Cookbook

    Recipe Introduction

    NOTE: Soup gets its name from the pickling spices, not from being hot. Exchanges
    Serves: 12

    1 broiler-fryer chicken (about 4 lbs), cut up
    2 qts. water
    5 celery ribs with leaves, diced
    2 medium carrots, diced
    1 large onion, diced
    1-1/2 tsp. pickling spices
    4 low-sodium chicken bouillon cubes
    1/4 tsp. pepper
    1 c. uncooked noodles

    Place chicken and water in a large soup kettle. Cover and bring to a boil; skin fat. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 2 hours or until chicken falls off bone. Strain broth; return to kettle. Allow chicken to cool; debone and cut into chunks. Skim fat from broth. Return chicken to broth along with celery, carrots and onion.

    Place pickling spices in a tea ball or cheesecloth bag; add to soup. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour. Remove spices; add bouillon, pepper and noodles. Cook for 10-15 minutes or until noodles are tender.
