WORLD'S BEST CREAM OF GARLIC SOUP
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.

CREAMY ROASTED GARLIC SOUP
After two weeks of searching and trying recipes I finally found one (making a few modifications)to copy a recipe my DH had at a restaurant in Ohio. If you are a garlic lover, then this is a must for you. It's very creamy and the roasted garlic flavor is out of this world! Prep time includes the 1 hour to roast the garlic. But if you are like me, there is always some on hand in the refridgerator.

CREAM OF GARLIC SOUP
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.

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.

Tips:
- Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a more intense flavor than pre-minced or jarred garlic. If you can, use fresh garlic cloves for the best flavor.
- Roast the garlic: Roasting the garlic mellows its flavor and makes it sweeter. This is a great way to add a rich, complex flavor to the soup.
- 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.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When you're adding the vegetables to the pot, don't overcrowd it. This will prevent the vegetables from cooking evenly.
- Season to taste: Once the soup is finished, season it to taste with salt and pepper. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Cream of garlic soup is a delicious, comforting soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
