Pour water into large pot. Add everything else and bring to a slow boil, and simmer for 4 hours skimming frequently. Strain the soup. Discard the onion, parsley, bay & peppercorns, but reserve other veg. Remove chicken, skin and debone, reserving the meat. Add meat back to stock, carrots, celery & garlic. Bring back to a simmer, and season to taste.

Serve over pastina, rice or spaghetti, mashing the veg into the soup.
