INGREDIENTS
1 large Free Range Organic Chicken
6 Spring Onions
1 x 5cm piece of ginger
Salt
METHOD
1 Bring to the boil a large pot half filled with water. Roughly chop the spring onions and slice ginger. Add to the water with a few pinches of salt. Place chicken into the boiling stock. Bring the chicken back up to a simmer and cook for 20 minuets. Place a lid on the pot; turn off the heat and let sit for 40 minuets.
2 Once the 40 minuets are up, take the chicken from the pot (keep the poaching liquid) and plunge into iced water. Once cool take from the water. With a fork pull away and shred the meat of the chicken. Return the bones to the poaching stock, bring to the boil, drop back to a simmer for 2 hours, skimming away impurities every half and hour. Strain the broth when the two hours is up. Add shredded chicken to the broth.
