Garlic Soup
Garlic Soup
Every way you use garlic creates a very different flavor
The most gentle subtle flavor comes when u cook garlic in boiling water
The most potent is when you rub raw garlic into the surface of toast
This soup blends the two flavors
For every serving increase accordingly the ingredients in quantities, as follows
sauté 1 whole garlic head(yes, one whole head of garlic per person), peeled and separated cloves until golden, in best quality olive oil and set aside
while you have the pan out sauté 6-8 whole sage leavesin the same pan w olive oil and set aside
toast two 1” thick slices of baguette-style breadover stove flame with a fork
Then add some drops of best quality olive oilto the toasts and rub a clove of garlic,cut lengthwise into the oiled toast and set aside
Boil 1 cup of fresh water(per person) and add all the sautéed garlic cloves and cook until soft
Turn the heat off the soup
Slowly slowly drizzle 1 whisked whole largeegginto the water, drops at a time, stirring continually as you add the egg
Salt, Pepperto taste
Divide the soup into bowls
Add the two toasts to each bowl and the whole sage leaves
I hope you made enough soup, as everyone will want more
