  • Baked Garlic Soup With Herb Toast

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Soups

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 Head garlic
    1 tb Extra virgin olive oil
    1 tb Balsamic vinegar — or
    Brandy
    1 Sprig fresh rosemary —
    (3-inch)
    SOUP:
    3 c Vegetable broth
    1/2 c Dry white wine
    Salt and pepper — to taste
    HERB TOAST:
    1/2 Loaf bread — see note
    1 Clove garlic — cut once
    Lengthwise
    Extra virgin olive oil
    1/2 c Grated Parmesan cheese
    1 tb Garlic chives — minced

    Preheat the oven to 300F. Slice the top from the head
    of garlic and remove most of the papery outer skin
    from the head, but do not peel or separate into
    cloves. Place in a small ovenproof dish. Pour the
    olive oil over the top and add the vinegar and
    rosemary. Cover with aluminum foil and bake until
    very tender, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and
    let cool. NOTE – Prepare 1/2 loaf of whole wheat
    Italian bread: cut diagonally into 1/2 inch-thick
    slices. Preheat the oven to 350F. Squeeze the softened
    garlic from the skins into a saucepan, and add the
    broth and wine. Heat to a simmer over medium-low heat
    and cook for 15 minutes. While cooking, make the herb
    toast. Bake the bread slices on a baking sheet until
    crisp but not golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Rub the bread
    with the cut sides of the garlic clove, then brush
    generously with oil. Sprinkle on a thin layer of the
    Parmesan cheese and chives. Bake until the cheese is
    melted, another 5 minutes. Serve immediately with the
    hot soup.

    Substitution for the Chinese garlic chives: 1 clove
    garlic and twice as much volumn of fresh chives.

    ~ – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

    NOTES : Two stage process. First, roast/bake the
    garlic. Second, use roasted garlic to flavor a broth.
    Serve with herb toast. Make extra! Garlic paste can be
    added to mashed potatoes, served with meats or
    vegetables, or simply spread on slices of toasted
    Italian bread.

    Categories : Halloween

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    2 large Ripe tomatoes
    2 tablespoons Crumbled blue cheese
    Roquefort dressing
    —–TOOLS—–
    Serrated knife
    Ziploc bag
    Plate
    4 Salad bowls
    Spoon

    Wash the tomatoes in cold water and with an adults help, cut into half inch
    slices.

    Place slices in plastic bag. Squeeze out any extra air and close the bag
    tightly. Lay the bag on a clean plate placed in the sink. Now make a fist and
    gently pound the tomato slices until they look tortured.

    Divide the tortured tomatoes among the four bowls and sprinkle with a half
    tablespoon of crumbled cheese.
    Then, holding a spoon at least 12″ from the salad bowl (to approximate the
    altitude of a low flying bird), dribble a glob of dressing onto each one.
