Best Chicken Soup

Ingredients

• 1 whole 3-4lbs chicken
• 1 medium onion cut into wedges
• 3 cloves garlic smashed with flat side of knife
• 2 stalks celery leaves and stems chopped
• Stems and roots from 1 bunch of cilantro
• 2 bay laurel leaves (or 1 California bay leaf)
• 1 Tbs kosher salt
• 2 carrots each cut into 2-3 large pieces
• 1 avocado
• cilantro and lime for serving

Method

Put the chicken in a stock pot just big enough to hold it. Scatter the onion, garlic, celery, cilantro, bay leaves and salt around the chicken. Cover the chicken with water, put a lid on the pot, and bring it to a boil over high heat. Continue boiling for 5 minutes. Then, turn off the heat, allowing the chicken to poach in the water for 45 minutes (don’t open the lid during this time).

When the chicken is cooked, remove it from the stock and allow it to cool off enough to touch. Remove and discard the skin then strip the meat off the bones into bite size pieces. Cover the chicken and refrigerate until the soup is done.

Return the bones back into the stock pot along with any collected juices from the chicken. Cover, and return the soup to a boil. When it boils, turn down the heat and simmer for 3 hours.

Strain the stock through a fine mesh sieve and discard the solids. Skim off any excess oil then add the soup back to the pot along with the carrots. Cook the carrots until tender and salt the soup to taste.

To serve, put down some chicken, carrots and avocado in a bowl. Pour the hot stock over everything and garnish with cilantro and a wedge of lime.

Black Forest cake recipe

Ingredients

•  ½ cup (110 g) butter, softened
• 1+¼ cup (275 g) sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1+¼ cup (140 g) all-purpose flour
• ½ cup (50 g) unsweetened cocoa powder, natural
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¾ cup (1.8 dl) buttermilk

Ingredients for filling

•  ¼ cup Kirshwasser (Kirsch/cherry brandy), optional
• 2 cans (14 oz or 400 g) cherry pie filling or pitted cherries
• 3 cups (7.2 dl) heavy whipping cream, chilled
• ¼ cup confectioners' sugar
• Milk chocolate curls or shavings, for garnish
• Maraschino cherries or sweet cherries, for garnish, optional

Method

1. Preheat oven to 350 deg F (Gas mark 4 or 180 deg C).
2. Line a 9 inch (23 cm) cake pan with greaseproof or other non-stick paper.
3. With an electric mixer, beat the softened butter with sugar until white and fluffy.
4. Add one egg at a time, mix well between each egg.
5. Add sifted flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, vanilla extract and buttermilk, and mix until the batter is smooth.
6. Transfer to a cake pan and bake at 350 degrees just until set in the middle, approximately 45-60 minutes. A wooden pick inserted in center should come out with just a few moist crumbs on it. Do not over-bake!
7. When cake is cool, use a long serrated knife to cut the cake horizontally into 3 equal layers. It is easier to cut if kept in a refrigerator for a few hours before cutting.

Filling

1. Drain cherry pie filling in a colander to remove most of the thickened juices.
2. Beat the whipping cream with confectioners' sugar until it thickens.
3. Using a vegetable peeler, shave chocolate; refrigerate until the cake is assembled.

 Assembling

1. Sprinkle each layer of the cake with Kirshwasser.
2. Place one cake layer on a serving plate.
3. Spread about one fifth of the whipped cream on the layer, and strew half of the cherries on top of the whipped cream.
4. Add the second cake layer.
5. Spread one fifth of the whipped cream on the second layer and the remaining cherries on top.
6. Add the third cake layer.
7. Spread one fifth of the whipped cream on top and one fifth on the sides. Gently press chocolate curls on the sides and/or on top of the cake.

Variations

1. You may substitute the cherry pie filling with cherry jam. In that case spread first the jam on the cake layers, then whipped cream on top.
2. You may use three cake tins instead of one. In that case the baking time must be shortened.
3. If cake flour is used, the cake comes out much fluffier.
