When done, you <a href="/TPWNYF5L">can </a><a href="/KXN5X3J8">strain </a>the <a href="/7NRWTTFN">soup </a>through a fine colander into another pot or a bowl, or you <a href="/TPWNYF5L">can </a>just take out all the cooked vegetables and chicken parts.
Step 7
Throw out the cooked onion, celery and herbs. Grate the <a href="/VYSXFJY6">carrot </a>and put it back in the <a href="/7NRWTTFN">soup. </a><a href="/6L7QNTJV">Chop </a>the other <a href="/JXYLJGZ5">halves </a>of fresh parsley and dill and add it to the <a href="/7NRWTTFN">soup. </a><a href="/WRFN6T6X">Separate </a>the chicken meat from the <a href="/HVQ6M73G">bones,</a> <a href="/6L7QNTJV">chop </a>it and add it to the <a href="/7NRWTTFN">soup.</a>
