(Perigordine Garlic Soup)
I recently enjoyed a delicious meal at the “Restaurant de l’Abbaye” in Cadouin, and definitely the very most delicious Tourin Blanchi - or Garlick Soup. The owner generously gave me her recipe, and it is with pleasure that I share it with you. What a treat!
– for 4 persons –
1 head of garlic
1 soup spoon, duck or goose fat
1 coffee spoon, vinegar
1 soup spoon, flour
1 soup spoon, crème fraîche
Bread or vermicelli
1 egg white
Gently fry/soften the garlic in the duck fat, without browning.
Add flour and stir, then add 2 litres of water.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Gently simmer for 2 hours.
Add the mixture of vinegar, egg white & cream.
Whisk/beat the mixture.
To serve, add pieces of bread or vermicelli and adjust the seasoning to taste.

My favourite GARLICK recipe.
Season one large chicken inside and out with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Place a bouquet garni inside the chicken.
Pour 150 cc’s olive oil into an ovenproof pot.
Place the chicken in the pot and add 40 cloves of unpeeled GARLICK.
Place a fresh bunch of rosemary, thyme, sage, bay leaf, parsley and celery on top of the GARLICK.
Gently warm the oil and turn the chicken and herbs and GARLICK.
Cover the pot and seal it with a water and flour paste.
Bake at 180 º C.
After 1½ hours take the pot to the table. Lift the lid and let your guests enjoy the aroma of chicken drenched in 40 cloves of GARLICK.
