Question
Hi,
 My questions is, "Is it better to cook chicken soup with the bones along with the skin, or without one or the other, or w/out both"?  The reason I ask is that I prefer the convience of boneless chicken, but, will this short cut have any negative ramifications on flavor (as well the "medicinal" value, :) )...and if so, is there a way to "offset it".  My husband, who is Jewish (I'm not), always tells me that it comes out much better whenever I leave everything in...but, I don't taste a difference and wonder if it's just "mental" thing?
  I hope I worded this clearly...
  Any help would be most appreciated.

Answer
Dear Deborah


you can do both. it doesnt matter. however, if it taste we are talking about try to use turkey throat/neck (without skin) . it turns out great with hardly any fat.
