Hey guys and gals,

I make a great phez, soup. What you'll need

 

2) hen phez, they seem to have more fat.

1) med onion cut in half

2) cloves garlic crushed

6-10) pepper corns

1-2 tbls salt.

 

Put cleaned birds in pot and cover with water, add onion, salt,garlic and pepper corns.

Cook on med heat, don't let it boil, just simmer, for about an hour or so or until the birds are cooked through.

Remove birds from broth and take the meat off the bones and set aside, pour broth through a fine mesh soup strainer into another pot, put meat back into broth and add your veggies.

 

For veggies I like the following.

 

3-4) carrots sliced

1-3) fair size white carrots or parsnips.

Fresh parsley chopped, about 2 tea spoons

A few sprigs of fresh dill.

And one leek coarsely cut. On low heat add all veggies ans cook untill the carrots soften a bit. Add salt and ground pepper to taste. Enjoy!!!!

I'd probably give the birds to your hunting buddy! Lol

use the breasts as you would chicken. Save the thighs and legs until you get a batch , then debone and grind for chili or tacos.
