Ken's simple soup
It's so simple.
Get a a big casserole with a lid, then drop in a chicken with most but not all skin removed. If you find anything in the chicken cavity just add it. Then throw in onions, carrots, leeks, potatoes, turnips, parsnips, celery, two bulbs of garlic (cut in half and remove any bad cloves), fresh ground pepper, salt, chicken stock, white wine, water.
And your favorite herbs. Include Bay leaves of course. Rip the leaves to help release the oil.
Simmer covered on low heat for ages. Stir occasionally. Add more liquid as necessary to prevent burning.
Tech Notes:
As with all cooking, quality ingredients make a huge difference. Don't use frozen, get the best fresh chicken you can. Get vegetables from a farmers market if possible.
