    I don't know what it is about chicken soup, but it does make you feel better, even if you don't feel like eating it lol! It still works. ;)

    I love chicken soup and I am always looking for new recipes. Passover is just a few weeks away, maybe this year we will make the matzah ball soup from scratch.

    Wow! There are some really great looking recipes, here. We love soup so I'll be trying some of these, for sure!

    The nicest thing about chicken soup: it keeps for days in the fridge. Make an extra large pot, add lots of egg noodles and viola: lunches for the week.

    Perfect for a cold day like today!

    What great recipes and pictures too, I'm starting to think about lunch! Chicken soup is great if you're ill.

    Yea - Whenever I am sick, a bowl of chicken soup always seems to comfort me. All these great chicken soup recipes are making me hungry.

    Interesting lens. I would appreciate it if, since you are Jewish Themed, that you would mention, on the recipes that aren't kosher (like the one with shrimp, the one with bacon and the one with dairy in the chicken soup) that the the recipes are inappropriate (without substitutions) for people who keep kosher (lots of people are new to keeping kosher and might get confused).

    BTW, I cook and bake like your Bubby. I had to start measuring when I starting writing recipes columns and my blog (which has healthy vegan recipes -- http://bayitandgarden.blogspot.com/ ) but for myself, I just toss together the ingredients. I rarely need to adjust too much :-)

    Looks delicious, I want to try it.
  • gwishes4u Feb 4, 2011 @ 10:37 am | delete
    I'm not Jewish but I might have to try your Bubbie's recipe. It sounds so simple and good! Thanks for sharing!

    I love chicken corn soup. Mom adds cooked whites, sliced and the yellow to the boiling soup near the end. Yum!

    For some family gatherings it is easiest to make a big pot of chicken soup and get the stool so it can be ladled it out.

    I actually felt better just reading this lens. People have been saying "bless you" all day as I sneeze, now I say Squidoo Bless You!

    Me and my hubby don't have chicken soup a long time, envy you!

    I love Jewish Penicillin, and yes it works! my sister was not feeling well last week(maybe coming down with a cold) I made soup but did not have chicken, so took my Hebrew National hot dogs, cut them up and added them to the soup...she loved it and said, she felt like he had eaten chicken soup, cause it made her feel good...I love the Matzah Balls, I have added Knödel or Klöse to my soups before.
  • WildFacesGallery Oct 31, 2010 @ 3:34 pm | delete
    I had not heard it called Jewish Penicillin before. :D But it's good stuff. A nicely done lens. You know fall is here, I think I'm having some chicken soup tonight. Though mine will be a personalized store bought variety. Not as good but sometimes it just has to be that way.

    Great lens and great recipes. Some of my fondest memories were my Bubbe giving us her version of chicken soup - saltines and a can of campbell's. My mother, on the other hand, still makes some killer matzah ball soup. One year at Passover, we had 10 extra guests arrive, with no notice. We do not know how, but her Matzah balls and broth multiplied and fed everyone that came late. It was down to just about nothing, and yes I saw it with my own eyes.

    The magical chicken soup. Great story and thanks for sharing it with us. :)
  • Ramkitten Oct 21, 2010 @ 12:06 pm | delete
    Mm, I can smell the chicken soup now. I definitely have it in my veins, but I've never made it myself, and my mom never made it from scratch when I was growing up. I had to wait for visits to my grandmother's house to get the "real thing." Those recipes you have here look (and I can tell smell) delicious.

    Just got my wings and had to come back to give this awesome lens with a blessing. I added a link here: Angel Blessings from Pukeko October 2010

    Wow, fantastic lens. I love chicken soup. Like you it has been a family tradition. Sadly, my grandma wouldn't share her wonderful recipe and its not written down. No one was allowed in the kitchen when she prepared the passover soup, so the recipe is now gone.
  • lakeerieartists Sep 25, 2010 @ 5:20 pm | delete
    That is sad. I have my grandmother's favorite strudel recipe, and gefilte fish recipe. But only family is allowed to know those. ;)
  • CDT Sep 19, 2010 @ 5:58 am | delete
    This is an outstanding lens! There are some absolutely fabulous recipes here - Chicken soup is most definitely the ultimate comfort food when you're ill and it's interesting to know that there seems to be some medical basis for it's reputation as a "healing" food :) Blessed by a SquidAngel :)
  • lakeerieartists Sep 19, 2010 @ 8:18 am | delete
    Thanks for flying by. It is certainly a great time to brush up on chicken soup recipes, as it is just the beginning of soup weather. :)

    I must try your Absolute Best Passover Chicken Broth Recipe. It sounds truly wonderful. I make a lot of chicken broth and we always have it when we are sick. I also use it in recipes.
  • BarryKrost Aug 22, 2010 @ 5:42 pm | delete
    Yum. Wonderful alternative possibilities.

    There's nothing more soothing than hot chicken soup when you're feeling under the weather or it's cold outside.
    Wonderful lens! 5 stars and favorited. :-)
  • WhiteOak50 Aug 12, 2009 @ 9:04 am | delete
    Holy Cow-What time is soup going to be ready? You have some of the best recipes ever. I love making chicken soup but mine is pretty simple, and have not made it since I have to watch my salt intake. I love lots of carrots in my chicken soup. Fantastic lens, and what an honor that this recipe was passed down from your Bubbie. That is a blessing and a comfort all in itself!
  • momsherbs Dec 14, 2008 @ 7:45 pm | delete
    Wonderful and beautiful lens. Great job!

    Hi Tipi is featuring you, she's my sister, so I Squiddoe over & saw this right away--I think chicken soup makes you feel better even if you're not sick. You have some ideas here that are new to me--nice to have some variations. I like to add white wine and butter just before putting the dumplings. This is a nice lens, I feel better just getting close to chicken soup!

    You've done your job well...my mouth is now watering. Which recipe to try first, is the problem. And parsnips in chicken soup...hadn't thought of that. Yum. 5*

    Great lens!! Yumm.... it all looks so good! I'm under the weather & think this would be the ticket! : )

    I am feeling so hungry for chicken soup right now. Thank you.

    I hereby bless this lens. I'd never heard that chicken soup was Jewish penicillin. What a wonderful name! Chinese people also say that chicken soup is good for a cold. :-) It's universal!
    I also love the pic of you and your Bubbie! :-)

    Great Lens. We love chicken soup here as well and I always add matzo balls as well. My mother in law made matzo ball soup once when the kids were little and ever since I have to add them otherwise the kids ask, "Where's the matzo balls". She spoils them.
  • fotolady49 Nov 30, 2008 @ 12:12 am | delete
    I wish I had some homemade chicken soup right now. I have a cold and feel lousy. I need some Jewish Penicillin!
    5 ***** sounds wonderful.

    Got a little twist. I'm the daughter and I make chicken soup for my mom! She never learned how to make it from scratch but I did so I'm the soup chef in my family. Great lens, 5 stars!

    I'm 38 years old. Married for 15 years, with 4 children of my own. And I STILL love it when my mom makes chicken soup for me. Yum!! My favorite thing about winter is coming home to a hot crock pot of steaming chicken soup.
