Rustic Country French Garlic Soup is a comforting culinary delight that has graced the tables of French households for generations. This aromatic and creamy soup is a testament to the power of simple, yet flavorful ingredients.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 cloves garlic
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 cup vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 small baguette or 4 slices crusty bread
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh herbs or croutons, for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Place the whole, unpeeled garlic cloves on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and roast for 20–25 minutes until soft and fragrant.

2. Heat a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil, and sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 5–7 minutes.

3. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins into the pot, add thyme, pour in the broth, and bring to a simmer. Cook for 15–20 minutes, then blend until smooth.

4. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Gently heat until warmed through and serve garnished with fresh herbs or croutons alongside slices of crusty bread.

Notes

For a vegetarian or vegan twist, substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth and use a plant-based cream alternative.
