Season with salt and pepper and stir. Cover pot and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken from Crock-Pot and transfer to a large bowl. Using two forks, shred into bite-size pieces. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and cream. Pour mixture into Crock-Pot and stir to combine. Return chicken to Crock-Pot and add cheddar and Parmesan. Turn heat to high, cover and cook for 30 minutes more, or until the cheese has melted and the soup has thickened. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Ladle into soup bowls and serve immediately.

To prepare soft boiled eggs place trivet in crockpot and add 1/2 cup of water. Place four eggs in crock pot, locking lid in place and making sure pressure valve is set to sealing, Using manual setting, set crockpot to high pressure for 3 minutes. Once 3 minutes is completed and crockpot beeps, quick release pressure and remove eggs as soon as the pressure pin drops. Place eggs in ice water bath until cooled.
To prepare soup set crockpot to sauté function on normal heat. Heat sesame oil, garlic and ginger, 1-2 minutes. Add sliced mushrooms, followed by water, soy sauce, 2 teaspoon of kosher salt, ground pepper and chicken to pot. Turn off sauté function, lock crockpot lid in place, make sure pressure valve is set to sealing and set crockpot to high pressure for 20 minutes, via manual mode. Crockpot will take 15-20 minutes to come to pressure, then will countdown from 20 minutes. After 20 minutes at high pressure, crockpot will beep and switch to keep warm mode. Turn pressure release valve to quick release pressure. Carefully open crockpot. Remove whole chicken and set aside to shred. Turn crockpot back to sauté function and let chicken broth come to a boil. Stir in noddles and let cook according to package directions. While noodles are cooking, shred chicken. Once noodles are cooked, stir in chicken meat, carrots and spinach. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with soft boiled egg.
