CHILLED GARLIC AND SPINACH SOUP



Chilled Garlic and Spinach Soup image

Green garlic, which greatly resembles an overgrown scallion, has a mild flavor. Heads of fresh garlic are mature but just harvested. Because they haven't been cured for winter storage, they're very juicy. If you can't find either type of garlic, substitute scallions for the green garlic and regular (cured) garlic for the fresh. The soup will still be delicious.

RICH GARLIC SOUP WITH SPINACH AND PASTA



Rich Garlic Soup With Spinach and Pasta image

This is a heartier version of garlic soup, a meal in a bowl with a generous egg yolk enrichment and lots of iron-rich spinach.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 heads garlic
2 quarts water
1 tablespoon olive oil
A bouquet garni made with a bay leaf, a couple of sprigs each thyme and parsley, and a fresh sage leaf
Salt to taste
1/2 cup small macaroni shells
6 1/2-inch thick slices country bread, toasted and rubbed with a cut clove of garlic
2 ounces Gruyère cheese, grated (1/2 cup, tightly packed)
4 egg yolks
1 6-ounce bag baby spinach

Steps:

  • Bring a medium saucepan full of water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice and water. Separate the head of garlic into cloves and drop them into the boiling water. Blanch for 30 seconds, then transfer to the ice water. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then drain and remove the skins from the garlic cloves. They'll be loose and easy to remove. Crush the cloves lightly by leaning on them with the side of a chef's knife.
  • Place the garlic cloves in a large saucepan with the 2 quarts water, olive oil, bouquet garni, and salt to taste, and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 1 hour. Strain and return the broth to the saucepan. Taste and adjust salt, and bring back to a simmer.
  • Add the macaroni shells to the broth and simmer until cooked al dente.
  • Distribute the garlic croutons among 6 soup bowls and top each one with a heaped tablespoon of cheese. Beat the egg yolks in a bowl. Making sure that it is not boiling, whisk in a ladleful of the hot garlic broth.
  • Add the spinach to the simmering broth and stir for 30 seconds to a minute, until all of the spinach is wilted. Turn off the heat and stir in the tempered egg yolks. Stir for a minute, taste and adjust seasonings. Ladle the soup over the cheese-topped croutons, and serve.

TEN MOTHERS GARLIC AND SPINACH SOUP



Ten Mothers Garlic and Spinach Soup image

Found this recipe on Care2 website @ http://www.care2.com/greenliving/ten-mothers-garlic-and-spinach-soup.html Adapted from The Roasted Vegetable, by Andrea Chesman (Harvard Common Press, 2002). This delicious broth, redolent with garlic and enriched with the vitamins and minerals of fresh spinach, takes its name from an old folk saying that garlic is as good as ten mothers. This soup is not only tasty and nourishing, it makes a comforting remedy for winter sniffles and sneezes.

Provided by SassiFras

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 heads garlic
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
5 cups vegetable broth, good-quality
4 cups fresh spinach leaves, chopped, tough stems discarded

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425.
  • Remove the outer papery covering of the garlic. Slice off the top of each head so most of the cloves are exposed. Place on a square of aluminum foil for easy cleanup, or select the smallest baking dish you have. Drizzle 1 teaspoon oil over each head. Fold the foil over the garlic to completely enclose it, or cover the baking dish with foil.
  • Roast for about 45 minutes, until the garlic is completely soft and lightly browned.
  • When cool enough to handle, squeeze the garlic pulp into a medium-sized saucepan. Add the broth and stir well to combine. Simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
  • Just before serving, stir in the spinach and simmer until wilted, about 4 minutes. Stir vigorously (the garlic has tendency to settle out.).
  • Serve hot.

SPINACH AND GREEN GARLIC SOUP



SPINACH AND GREEN GARLIC SOUP image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Vegetable

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 Tbsp. unsalted butter
½ to ¾ lb. green garlic, thinly sliced (white and pale green parts only)
Salt
1 qt. vegetable or mild chicken broth
8 to 10 oz. baby spinach leaves
1 Tbsp. crème fraîche

Steps:

  • Warm the olive oil and butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the green garlic and a pinch of salt, and cook, stirring frequently, until it is soft and translucent. Also, as the garlic cooks, you should notice that its scent changes from raw and sharp to sweeter and more mellow; that's what you're after. When the garlic is ready, add the stock, raise the heat a bit, and bring it to a boil. Then adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer, and continue to cook for about 15 minutes. Add the spinach, and immediately turn off the stove. Let it sit for 5 minutes - not too long, or the spinach will lose its color - and then, working in batches, purée the mixture in a blender. (Remember never to fill the blender more than a quarter or a third full, because the hot liquid will expand when you turn on the motor.) The soup should be a rich shade of green and very smooth. Return the soup to the pot, and place it over low heat to rewarm gently. Add 1 Tbsp. crème fraîche and another pinch or two of salt. Taste, and adjust seasoning as necessary. Serve warm or hot, with a drizzle of olive oil or a dollop of crème fraîche, if you like.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and color than frozen spinach.
  • Sauté the spinach: Sautéing the spinach before adding it to the soup helps to remove excess moisture and concentrate its flavor.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Season the soup to taste: Season the soup with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, oregano, or chili powder, to taste.
  • Serve the soup with a garnish: Garnish the soup with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese, or a few croutons.

Conclusion:

Spinach garlic soup is a delicious and nutritious soup that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is packed with vitamins and minerals, and it is also low in calories and fat. This soup is a great way to enjoy the benefits of spinach and garlic, and it is sure to become a family favorite.
