SAVORY AND TASTY
CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
INGREDIENTS:
METHOD:
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the egg
noodles and oil, and boil for 8 minutes, or until tender. Drain,
and rinse under cool running water.
Stir in the onions and celery. Reduce heat. And let simmer for
about 15 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water together until
the cornstarch is completely dissolved.
INGREDIENTS:
METHOD:
Cut off leek tops and wash well. Set aside the leek bottoms.
Put the clean leek tops in the bottom of a large cooking pot.
Place the chicken on top and add the bay leaves, garlic, dried
plums, and 3 quarts of water. Set over high heat until it starts
to simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low or low and let
simmer gently, occasionally pushing the chicken under the
liquid with tongs, for 60 to 75 minutes.
Carefully lift the chicken with two forks, let the liquid drain
from the chicken cavity, and place it in a bowl. Separate the
skin and bones. Tear the meat into bite size pieces and put
into the refrigerator until it is needed.
Place skin and bones back into the pot and gently simmer for
60 minutes.
Add half of the sliced leeks to the pot with salt, pepper, and
rice. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 60 minutes, skimming
some of the fat off. If you want and adding more water, it it is
reduced too much.
TIPS:
If you don't have the extra hour to simmer the bones and skin
in the broth, just skip step 5 and go directly to step 6.
You can also use barley, oats, or even potatoes to replace the
rice, or you can skip it altogether.
If you want a thinner soup, do not add all the chicken. Save
some for another use.

TO DEEP FRY:
When the egg rolls are golden brown, remove them to paper
towels to drain. Each batch will take about 3 to 4 minutes.
TO BAKE IN OVEN:
Serve the egg rolls with barbecue sauce on the side, or you
can serve them with sweet and sour sauce.
Tips:
. To keep the cooked egg rolls warm if you are deep frying,
preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Place the cooked egg rolls
on a rack in a baking pan and transfer to the oven while you
fry the rest.
INGREDIENTS:
METHOD:
In a large skillet over high heat, heat 1 tbsp of oil. Add the
cabbage, carrots, celery, mushrooms, garlic and ginger, cook
and stir frequently until the vegetables are limp and tender,
about good 5 minutes. (Depending on the size of your skillet,
you might have to do two batches).
Turn off the heat and add the green onions, sesame oil, salt,
five spice powder, (if using), and white pepper. Toss to
combine.
Fold the corner closest to you over the filling. Fold the two
side corners inward so that it looks like an envelope.
Dip your fingers into the prepared water and wet the corner.
Roll the egg roll from the filling side towards you. Place the
egg roll on the prepared tray seam side down. Repeat with the
remaining wrappers, line up the egg rolls on the tray in a
single layer.
Set a wire rack over the baking sheet. You will be placing the
fried egg rolls on the rack. This will allow the egg rolls to cool
without getting soggy. In a medium pot, add enough oil to
come about 2 inched up the side of the pot. Heat the oil until
a deep fry thermometer registers 325 degrees F. (If you don't
have a deep fry thermometer, you can test the temperature.)
Transfer the fried egg rolls onto the prepared wire rack to
drain, leaving space between each so that they don't steam
and become soggy.
SERVE the egg rolls warm, but not enough to burn your
mouth. You can use with sweet and sour sauce, Chinese hot
mustard, duck sauce, or chili sauce.

FOR THE RICE PUDDING, place the rice in a sieve and rinse it
under cold running water. Transfer to a medium saucepan
with water and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce
heat a few notches so it boils, but not violently. Cook until the
rice is just tender, about 12 minutes. Drain.
While the rice is cooking, place the milk and sugar into a
large saucepan. Split vanilla bean lengthwise. Spread out
seeds with the tip of a paring knife. Add seeds and pod to milk
and place over medium low heat to infuse.
Add the cooked rice to the milk mixture, raise heat to medium
high and stand over the pan, (milk can boil over quickly).
When it starts bubbling, reduce heat to maintain simmer. (If it
starts to boil over, stir and remove from heat.) Cook, stirring
occasionally at beginning and more frequently near end, until
the rice is very soft and pudding is thick and homogeneous
rather than just rice suspended in liquid, about 35 minutes.
Remove from heat. Remove vanilla pod, since, dry out and
save to infuse sugar.
Cut the apricots in half. Remove and discard the pits. If the
apricots are small, cut each half into 2 wedges. If they are
large, cut each half in 3. Arrange in 1 layer, cut side up, in a

. Dr. Claude Gallant, Ph.D. Once said that, “You can wind
down with a cup of relaxing herbal tea. Taking Chamomile and
lavender have been used for generations with great success.
