James lived with his Grandpa Joe, and Grandpa Joe taught him to make this soup, which he made once per week. Joe used to make this recipe based on what he has in the garden. His mother, Great Grandma was the best chicken plucker in Prague. People would bring her their chickens to pluck! James has refined this recipe and makes it anytime the family feels a little depleted, and this chicken soup cures whatever ails you.
