This is my mother’s recipe and while she used to make it with chicken and beef, you can make it just with chicken. My partner likes to add 1 turkey leg, which gives the broth a deeper flavour.
Rosol is a traditional Polish meat broth. The most popular variety is a clear chicken soup. It is commonly served with fine noodles, often homemade.
Rosol is the most comforting food I can think of and is one of the few foods that can truly warm your body and soul. It’s a very popular winter soup that’s hearty and bursting with flavours. Also, we often cook rosol when people are sick, believing in its healing qualities.
