My soup and salad recipes are meant to be fresh and healthy, so I’m not going to add any cream. I adapted this recipe and fell in love because you get that perfect creamy texture without adding any cream! On cold Yom Tov nights I often skip the fish course and serve a big bowl of these garlic knots with piping hot soup instead. My kids love it! The best part of this recipe is that you use about one challah-worth of your favorite challah dough. No extra patchke involved.
2 tablespoons oil
2 large Spanish onions, diced
6 cloves garlic, chopped
3 to 4 pounds chicken bones
3 to 3 and 1/2 pounds chicken cutlets
2 large zucchini, peeled
4 large potatoes, peeled
1 (24-ounce) bag Beleaf Frozen Cauliflower
2 and 1/2 tablespoons Manischewitz Kosher Salt
10 and 1/2 cups water
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup Gefen Olive Oil
3 teaspoons chopped garlic (jarred is fine)
3/4 teaspoon Manischewitz Kosher Salt
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté onions and garlic until translucent.
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 two-and-a-half hours. Discard chicken 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.
If freezing for later, divide soup into containers and add chopped chicken into each.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
If you have a kitchen scale, measure each piece by weight so they will all be the same size. Each of these are .3 ounces.
Roll each piece into a long log and form a knot. Let rise for half an hour. Brush with egg wash and bake for 12 minutes.
Mix olive oil, garlic, salt, oregano and rosemary in a small oven-safe dish. Cover and warm in the oven. Brush over garlic knots right before serving. If freezing the garlic knots, freeze without garlic oil.

Delicious! I leave out the potatoes and it’s still super creamy!
A winner – made it for guests and first time they’ve ever asked for second helpings of soup!! literally was scraping the bottom of the pot…
