Recipe
Onions, carrots, garlic and potatoes to wash and clean from a peel. Cut onions in small cubes, carrots to grate, to cut potatoes averages into cubes, to crush garlic. We wash greens and small we cut.
If you want to cook broth quickly and without efforts, bake chicken meat in an oven and put it in a pan with the boiling water. Later reduce fire to a minimum, add salt, bay leaf and bell pepper. The baked chicken won't give foam and will improve taste of broth.
That chicken was baked very quickly, cut her on small pieces, in a hot oven for it there will be enough 10 minutes. Broth from small pieces will cook quickly too, for half an hour it will be ready. This way seems difficult, but actually to cook meat within 2 hours and to catch foam, it isn't less troublesome. Plus it is inconvenient to pull out and divide a big piece into portions.
Meat can be got and separated from a bone at will, having added to soup only meat. It for those who don't love a stone in soup. Bay leaf and bell pepper can be caught too.
We wash out peas in water, we choose not beautiful peas and we throw out them. We fall asleep in a pan with water, we add salt and couple of pinches of baking soda. With soda peas will cook for half an hour, just for the same time and broth will cook.
If you cook soup on water, then soda needs to be added no more than two pinches and not to merge water in which peas cooked, and to use as broth.
While we cook peas and broth, it is necessary to fry onions with carrots on vegetable oil within 10 minutes, as necessary stirring slowly.
After peas cooked, we merge it through a colander and we add to broth, there we add the fried vegetables and the cut potatoes. We cook soup of 12 - 15 minutes so far potatoes won't cook, then we add garlic. We taste soup and at will dosalivay and we add peppercorn. Then we add chopped greens and we switch off fire.
Soup is ready.
