The following few posts are from "Mother Magyar",
by Meryl Constance
writing in the Sydney Morning Herald. The article
is about Agi
Adler, a Jewish lady who emigrated to Australia as
a young woman
shortly after WWII. Though she didn't know how to
cook anything then,
let alone Hungarian food, over the years she learned
the art. The
following recipes comprise an Hungarian feast and
observe Jewish
dietary laws. They look quite good and are remarkably
simple. So
good that I typed them in by hand... There was a crease
across them
that drove my scanner bonkers.
Maybe Mark can help us out with terms like "Becel
margarine" and "No.
15 chicken"...
Put the marrow bone, chicken carcasses and giblets
in a large pot
with 2 litres of water. Bring to the boil, skim and
reduce to a slow
simmer. Meanwhile, chop vegetables. After the soup
has been
simmering for half an hour, add the vegetables and
parsley stems and
continue cooking for about 2 hours. Strain the broth,
reserving the
carrots and giblets. Add salt to taste. Slice the
carrots and
giblets and return them to the soup.
In a separate pot of boiling water, cook the noodles
and then drain
them. divide the noodles between 8 soup plates and
ladle the soup
over it. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
