Annia, I am confused, you say leek, carrot, parsley and celery. Yet after the carrot, I don’t see parsley nor celery. I see your putting some kind of root veggies, but I don’t really know what they are. Could you please clarify this for me. Also, after the chicken legs cook and cool, do you add the skin with the meat to be ground, or do you use only the meat with no skin? Thank you and I am planning on trying this recipe as soon as it is clarified to me.
