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.

Time 3h

Yield Makes 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 to 4 heads fresh garlic (enough for 3 tablespoons)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Coarse salt
2 cups low-fat plain yogurt
6 to 10 green garlic stems, trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch slices (1 cup)
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 pound baby spinach (6 packed cups)
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, plus small leaves for garnish

Let cool, then squeeze out garlic, discarding skins. Place 1/4 cup yogurt in a bowl, and stir in 2 teaspoons roasted garlic.

Add remaining spinach, the basil, and 2 tablespoons roasted garlic (reserve remainder for another use), and puree. Add lemon juice, and season with salt. Refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.

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.

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.

GARLIC SOUP WITH SPINACH



Garlic Soup With Spinach image

I made a lot of turkey stock after Thanksgiving and pulled some out for this spinach-packed, very quick and easy soup. A vegetarian version made simply with water and garlic is equally delicious.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 30m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 quarts chicken stock, turkey stock, vegetable stock, or water
A bouquet garni made with a bay leaf and a couple of sprigs each thyme and parsley
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 to 3 large garlic cloves (to taste), minced
1/2 cup elbow macaroni
2 eggs
1 6-ounce bag baby spinach, or 12 ounces of bunch spinach, stemmed, washed, dried and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (1 ounce)

Steps:

  • Place the stock or water in a large saucepan or soup pot with the bouquet garni. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Bring to a simmer and add the garlic. Cover and simmer 15 minutes. Add the pasta and simmer 5 minutes, until cooked al dente. Remove the bouquet garni.
  • Beat the eggs in a bowl and stir in 1/3 cup of stock, making sure that it is not boiling, and the cheese.
  • Stir the spinach into the simmering stock and simmer for 1 minute. Drizzle in the egg mixture, scraping all of it in with a rubber spatula. Turn off the heat and stir very slowly with the spatula, paddling it back and forth until the eggs have set. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve at once.
