Here it is! Guard it with you life: You'll need 1x2kg (4.6lbl) organic free range chicken (whole), one large carrot (roughly cut), 1 stick of celery (roughly cut), 1 large onion (roughly cut), 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, herb garni (fancy name for some nice herbs but don't cut too fine as we are going to strain them out). Fine egg noodles (1/2 pack)

Wash chicken in water and clean out centre - it's a dirty bird.

Get a very large pot, cover whole chicken in water (3-4 litres) and bring to boil and turn down to simmer for 30 minutes. Regularly scoop of fat and foam. After 30 minutes add herbs, carrot, celery, onion and some salt and pepper. Simmer in open pot for 3 hours, occasionally stirring. After 3 hours take off heat and strain into a clean pot or container - this is the nicest chick base on the planet. Save some of the chicken that is left for the soup - throw the rest away (or into compost) other than the liquid which will be yellow or even slightly green (from celery). Put one liter or so back in pot and add some thin egg noodles - cook for 4-5 minutes until only just firm noodles.Add parley and salt and pepper to taste.

No matter what happens in the world, this soup will keep you safe.

Freeze rest of base soup for risotto or almost anything you need a chicken stock base for.
