I made this soup after coming back from a trip to Russia with a craving for good soup like the ones I'd had there and a bonus sore throat from my friend's kids. My super-scientific homemade chicken stock usually consists of: a chicken carcass simmered for a long as you can stand it with carrot sticks, celery sticks, a quartered onion, some smashed garlic cloves, salt, whole black pepper, 2 bay leaves, and some fresh herbs.
