Instructions: 1. Break up turkey carcass and place bones in a 5- to 6-quart Dutch oven or deep kettle. Add 1 of the carrots, the stalk of celery, onion, bay leaf, parsley, nutmeg, thyme, salt, pepper, and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and sirmmer, covered, 3 hours. Uncover and simmer 1 hour longer to reduce liquid.

2. Strain into large bowl. Discard bones and vegetables, returning any meat to the broth. (At this point, soup may be refrigerated, then skimmed.)

3. Return soup to the cooking pot. Add the second carrot, sliced celery, and additional broth, if needed to enhance flavor. Bring to a boil again, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until carrots and celery are tender

(about 1 hour).

4. Add macaroni and cook at a gentle boil until nearly tender-about 10 minutes. Stir in peas and continue cooking about 3 minutes. Salt to taste.
