Garlic soup
Last Updated on
Garlic soup made from fresh garlic is a gentle and creamy starter. You can add croutons or, when you’re feeling fancy, a bacon muffin.
Ingredients for 8 people
1 whole, preferably fresh garlic 1 floury potato 1 shallot 1 tbsp butter 1 dl dry white wine 1 tbsp butter 1 tbsp dry white wine; (or 1 part white wine vinegar and 4 parts water) 1 litre red milk 2 dl cream 2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp white pepper
Peel the shallot, chop and freeze with the butter in a saucepan for a few minutes. Pour in the white wine. Cook until the liquid has reduced.
Add the peeled and chopped potato, peeled garlic cloves and milk. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the potatoes until tender.
Use a hand blender to blend the garlic soup until smooth. Just before serving, add the cream and blend until fluffy.
