does anyone have the whisk from this week that doesn’t mind posting the cream of chicken soup recipe ? I by mistake threw mine out and wanted to save it

2 tablespoons oil
2 large spanish onions diced
6 cloves garlic, chopped
3-4 lbs. chicken bones
3-3 1/2 lbs chicken cutlets
2 large zucchini, peeled
4 large potatoes, peeled
1 24 ounce bag cauliflower
2 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
10 1/2 cups water

1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Saute onions and garlic until translucent.
2. Place chicken bones and cutlets each into a separate net bag. Add both net bags, along with zucchini, potatoes, cauliflower, salt, and just enough water to cover the vegetables. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 1/2 hours. Discard checken bones and set cutlets aside. Use an immersion blender to blend broth and vegetables. Shred or dice cutlets and add back into the blended soup.

I've made this soup many times already and this is a family favorite. From my experience, it's enough to add the cutlets 45 mins before you finish cooking the rest of the soup, otherwise it dries out.

Did you use table salt?
You need less
Try adding potatoes

I used kosher salt. Cooked it with a few potatoes and was still salty. Instead of bones I used necks and giblets because the store was out of bones. Would that be why?

Probably. Necks and giblets are very salty.

I do think that 3.5 Tablespoons are a lot though.

And for those of you who have made it - isn't 3.5 pounds of chicken cutlets too much? It's more than I serve for a meal for a large family.

ETA: because we kasher our chickens, the chicken we buy is naturally salty. I have found that some companies are saltier than others so you may need to adjust the salt added accordingly.
