Step by Step guide

Step 1

Place the washed chicken thighs in a pot, cover with cold water, and set over high heat. Once the water comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low, add salt to taste, and add an unpeeled, washed onion. Cover with a lid. After 30 minutes, remove the onion, add diced carrots, and after 5 minutes, add peeled and diced potatoes, checking for salt. Cook for another 10–15 minutes.

Step 2

Then add the vermicelli and cook for 15 minutes. After that, add the spices (a pinch of tarragon, allspice, and white pepper, along with a bit of black pepper). After 5 minutes, turn off the heat. Let the soup steep for 10 minutes. You can place half a boiled egg and finely chopped herbs in the bowl with the soup.
