Looks good but no need for so much salt! When I make my chicken soup, I never ever add salt and it always comes out delicious. Once in a while I add in a pinch on Friday night. The chicken and vegetables add so much flavor that it’s really not necessary to add so much.
Yes I do add salt and sometimes plenty of it to other foods but chicken soup really doesn’t need loads.
Add enough chicken and you will be fine, so delicious and natural!!
I really enjoy these videos, please add more of them!
Thank you

Point taken! I personally add salt slowly. Mostly because no matter how much I add, my kids will add more.
