Soup Ingredients
  • 1 head Garlic Use a whole head of fresh garlic; purple-striped varieties are milder and sweeter.
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Sage This herb complements the garlic's sweetness and adds aromatic depth.
  • 1 pinch Salt A pinch enhances and balances the rich flavors of the soup.
  • 4 cups Chicken Stock Feel free to swap it with vegetable stock for a vegetarian twist.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Extra virgin olive oil is key for creating a creamy emulsion.
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard Enriches the emulsion with a delightful depth and tanginess.
  • 1 large Egg Yolk Emulsifies beautifully, adding creaminess and richness.

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • baking tray
  • whisk

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and drizzle olive oil on a baking tray before placing the whole head of garlic, cut in half horizontally. Roast the garlic for 30-40 minutes until soft and golden.
  2. While the garlic is roasting, pour chicken stock into a pot over medium-high heat, bringing it to a gentle boil. Add salt and dried sage, then reduce to a simmer.
  3. Once the garlic is roasted, mash it into a smooth paste in a bowl, focusing on breaking it down while still warm.
  4. Whisk together the egg yolk and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Gradually drizzle in olive oil while whisking to create a creamy emulsion.
  5. Slowly add the garlic paste into the pot with the simmering broth, stirring well. Temper the egg emulsion by adding a ladle of the warm stock into it, then pour it into the pot.
  6. Ladle the warm soup into bowls and serve immediately, optionally topping with croutons or a poached egg.
