World's Best Cream of Garlic Soup image

From Food & Wine Magazine. This smooth soup is a specialty of chef Susan Spicer at Bayona in New Orleans. What seems like a prodigious quantity of garlic and onions is mellowed by the long, slow cooking. If you can, make the soup a day ahead; the flavor will be even better.

CREAM OF GARLIC SOUP



Cream of Garlic Soup image

The secret to this soup, a luscious puree of caramelized garlic and onions thickened with French bread, is patience. I originally developed it at Savoir Faire. At the time I had a boyfriend who frequently traveled to Mexico. He would rave about sopa de ajo-a broth flavored with garlic and egg-and it sounded so earthy and scrumptious that I decided to try to make it. My approach to recipe development typically involves looking up several versions of a dish, then taking what I like from each of those recipes. That's exactly how this soup was created. I trained with French chefs, so a puree leapt to mind. Then I read that in Latin countries soups are often thickened with bread. One version relied on fish stock, but I thought chicken stock would be more universally appealing. So I stirred all my ideas together, my mentor Daniel gave it his enthusiastic blessing, and my first true culinary creation was born. When we initially started making this soup, my dishwashers had to peel 10 pounds of garlic at a time. Thankfully, these days at Bayona, we buy peeled garlic by the gallon. In order to develop the proper deep, rich flavor, it's essential to take your time cooking the garlic. You need to stir the mixture a lot over low heat and wait until the onions and garlic get very dark and caramelized. I love garnishing this soup with tiny croutons that provide a crunchy contrast to the silky body.

Yield makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 cups peeled and sliced onions (about 2 pounds)
2 cups peeled but not chopped garlic cloves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme, or 1 teaspoon dried
7 cups Chicken Stock, preferably homemade (p. 206)
1 Bouquet Garni (p. 145) made with parsley stems, thyme sprigs, and bay leaf
3 cups stale French bread, torn into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup half-and-half or heavy cream
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the butter and oil in a heavy-bottomed 2-quart saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until they turn a deep golden brown, 30-40 minutes. Add the thyme, 6 cups Chicken Stock, and Bouquet Garni and bring to a boil. Stir in the bread cubes and let simmer for 10 minutes, until the bread is soft. Remove the soup from heat and cool for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the Bouquet Garni and puree the soup in a blender (in batches, if necessary), until completely smooth. Return the soup to the pot and heat to the desired temperature. Whisk in more Chicken Stock if the mixture is too thick. Add half-and-half or cream until the soup reaches the texture of a classic cream soup. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Soup

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

good pinch saffron threads
85g butter
3 large heads green garlic , outer skin removed and roughly chopped
2 medium onions , sliced
2 sticks celery , chopped
1 bay leaf
2 tbsp dry sherry
1.2l chicken or vegetable stock
3 tbsp risotto or long grain rice
142ml carton double cream
lemon juice
crisp croûton , to serve

Steps:

  • Soak the saffron in 2 tbsp hot water for 10 minutes. Melt the butter in a large saucepan. Add the garlic (and its skin), onion, celery and bay leaf to the pan, stir to coat in the butter, then cook very gently, covered, for about 15-20 minutes. The garlic and onions should be very soft and tender but not at all browned, so keep the heat low.
  • Uncover and add the sherry, raise the heat and bring to the boil then add the stock, saffron and its liquid, 1 tsp salt and a good grinding of fresh black pepper. Bring to the boil, stir in the rice and simmer gently for 15 minutes or until the rice is just cooked. Fish the bay leaf out and discard.

Categories     Cream Soups

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 oz sourdough french bread, cubed
1/8 tsp garlic powder
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 large heads of garlic, unpeeled
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 c onion, finely chopped
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 c buttermilk
3/4 c whipping cream
1/2 c cooked, cubed red potatoes
2 Tbsp cognac
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp minced fresh dillweed
garnish: minced fresh dillweed

Steps:

  • 1. Saute the bread cubes and garlic powder in 2 tablespoons butter in a large skilet over medium heat until the bread cubes are golden. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • 2. Place the garlic heads on an ungreased baking sheet; drizzle with olive oil. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • 3. Remove and discard the papery skin from the garlic. Cut off the bottom of each garlic head, and squeeze out soft garlic into a small bowl. Set garlic aside.
  • 4. Saute the onion in 2 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until tender. Stir in buttermilk and whipping cream. Bring just to a boil; reduce heat, adn simmer uncovered, for 5 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside and let it cool.
  • 5. Position the knife blade in a food processor bowl; add the reserved garlic, buttermilk mixture, and potato. Process 1 minute or until smooth.
  • 6. Return the pureed mixture to the saucepan; stir in the Cognac, salt, and 1/8 teaspoon dillweed. Cook over medium heat until mixture is thoroughly heated, stirring frequently.
  • 7. To serve, ladle soup into individual soup bowls. Sprinkle with the reserved bread cubes. Garnish with dill weed if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a more intense flavor than garlic powder or minced garlic, and it will give your soup a richer taste.
  • Roast the garlic: Roasting the garlic mellows out its flavor and makes it sweeter. You can roast garlic in the oven or on the stovetop.
  • Use a variety of mushrooms: Different types of mushrooms have different flavors and textures, so using a variety will add depth and complexity to your soup.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When sautéing the mushrooms, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Simmer the soup gently: Once you've added all of the ingredients to the soup, bring it to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes, or until the flavors have melded together.
  • Season to taste: Before serving, taste the soup and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder.

Conclusion:

Cream of garlic soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a great way to use up leftover roasted garlic. With its rich, creamy flavor and hearty texture, cream of garlic soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
