I love garlic and a garlic soup can be pretty amazing. In addition if ever you are feeling a bit under the weather – a cold or the flu, here is a potent yet pleasant soup that I like to make. Clears out your head pretty quickly.
4 or five minced fresh garlic cloves
1 small minced white onion
salt and pepper to taste
a slice or two of bacon minced
2 eggs
chicken broth
In a hot skillet cook up a couple of slices of minced bacon. Once the bacon is near crispy stir in 1 small minced white onion till translucent then add 4 or five minced cloves of fresh garlic.
With heat on low add about two cups of hot chicken broth from the kettle and bring temperature back up near a boil add two eggs and stir in briskly and let simmer for a minute or two until the egg is completely cooked.
Serve hot.
Cautionary Note: Cooking by hand – is just that – cooking by hand. I cook by hand so my recipes are generally a hand of this and a hand of that. A finger is as much of that item that you can hold on top of an outstretched finger. A palm is that which you can hold in the palm of your hand. A hand is that which you can hold on your hand flat with fingers stretched out. – come on folks — work with me here…. set the measuring cup aside, put down the measuring spoons and get cooking.
