- 1 head oak-smoked garlic
- 2 Tbls. olive oil
- 3 Tbls. butter

- 3 Cups chicken stock
- 4 slices day-old crustless white bread
- 2/3 Cup light cream
- 1 ounce blanched almonds, finely chopped
- chopped fresh parsley or chives, to garnish

- Separate the garlic cloves, removing the papery skins. Heat the oil
- in a pan, add the garlic, and cook for 10-15 minutes until tender.
- Remove from the heat. Cook, then skin. Roughly chop the flesh.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan, add the garlic and onion, cover,
- and cook over low heat for 10-15 minutes until the onion is soft. Pour
- in the stock, add the bread, and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Transfer the soup to a blender or food processor. Add the cream and
- almonds and blend until smooth. Garnish and serve. Serves 4
- [Mod: garlic that has been smoked over oak chips adds a great flavor
- but regular garlic will work quite well.]
