Description
Have you ever heard of such a soup? I have heard and tried several times to cook it. But scare off some points. And in vain is not cooked. Cock-a-leekie is a famous Scottish soup, which is brewed in Scotland for centuries. I was scared off by the prunes, but it in this soup good nemozhno. And brewed I am not a whole chicken because the skin doesn't cook bouillons, and two whole chicken for soup is unfamiliar too. The soup was so good, though very unusual. When pre-cooked broth, the soup is cooked rather quickly with minimal fuss. Of course, I had to adjust a little bit the famous Scottish soup. I think not too spoiled. Because most of the recipes I have kept. But in the description I will tell you how to boil a real cock-a-leekie. Well, let's try to make the famous soup?
