reserve the stewing hen until cool enough to handle; then pick the
meat from the bones. Cut into neat little pieces. Strain the saffron
broth through a fine sieve. (Note: The soup can be made through this
step in advance. Simply frefrigerate broth and diced chicken meat for
2 to 3 days, or freeze the broth and the chicken meat in separate
convenienly sized containers. Be sure to label and date them. To
use, defrost, remove congealed fat, return the broth full boil, and
add the diced meat. Continue with recipe.) Add the corn, celery,
parsley, and cooked noodles to the broth. Return the soup to a simmer

* Use reduced carb chocolate bars for cookies and muffins. Once you have converted your favorite chocolate cookie or chocolate muffins recipe using soy flour, you dont want to mix in those high carbohydrate full-sugar chocolate. Cut up a reduced carb bar of chocolate into little pieces and use that in its place.
