Not a lot of work, just a lot of time. I was also disappointed that the recipe in the book only yielded 8 cups - enough for chicken soup tonight and chicken tortilla soup tomorrow.
Lesson 1.2: Chicken (noodle) soup - I added the noodles : ) This was really really good but again, time consuming. Realized late in the process that I bought turnips instead of parsnips - oops. Didn't want to go back to the story since I'd already been there twice and sent my husband once.
While I'm at it, I'm making the chicken tortilla soup tonight to reheat for dinner tomorrow. Bought fresh chiles instead of dried chiles ... Wondering if that's going to be a problem... Oh, and I got to test out my new mandoline slicer to thinly slice the onion : )
I also learned how to chop an onion properly - not as hard as I thought.
All in all, a good day - I will probably be less ambitious for how many 'lessons' I can complete in a day from here on out though.
