Categories     soups and stews, appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 heads new-crop garlic, if available, about 16 medium cloves
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
12 sage leaves
Salt
pepper
4 to 6 eggs
4 to 6 slices day-old French bread, lightly toasted
Chopped parsley, scallions or chives for garnish

Steps:

  • Peel and slice or roughly chop the garlic cloves. Warm the oil in a heavy soup pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and sage and let them sizzle a bit without browning, about 2 minutes. Season with about a teaspoon of salt and a few grinds of pepper.
  • Add 6 cups of water and bring to a boil over high heat, then lower to a brisk simmer. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Taste for seasoning and adjust.
  • Ladle about an inch of soup into a skillet. Over medium heat, bring to a brisk simmer and, for each serving, poach an egg for about 3 minutes.
  • For each serving, place a slice of toast in a soup bowl. With a slotted spoon lift a poached egg onto each piece. Ladle the soup over it. Sprinkle with a little parsley, scallion, or chive.

This soup was a bit too garlicky for my taste. I might try it again with less garlic next time.

This Provencal garlic soup was a delicious and comforting meal. The garlic flavor was present but not overpowering, and the poached egg added a lovely richness. I served it with a side of crusty bread, and it was the perfect way to warm up on a cold

Overall, this soup was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of salt next time.

This Provencal garlic soup was a delightful journey to the south of France. The flavors were vibrant, the poached egg added a velvety richness, and the croutons provided a satisfying crunch. A true culinary masterpiece!
