Mrs. Beverly Applebaum
This classic Jewish chicken soup is unusual in calling for such a
prodigious quantity of rice. Given that 1cup of raw rice yields 3 cups
cooked, this recipe calls for 13 1/2 cups of cooked rice to balance a
single stewing chicken.
Put the chicken and all other ingredients into a large pot and cover them
with water. Bring to a boil; remove any scum that rises to the top. Cover
and simmer until the chicken is tender. Serve with boiled noodles;
alternatively, boil 4 1/2 c. rice in the soup.
