Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large pot, heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add 8 to 10 sliced garlic cloves and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and golden. Stir in 1 tablespoon of smoked paprika and 4 oz of torn stale bread; toast for an additional 3 minutes.
- Pour in 6 to 7 cups of chicken stock or vegetable broth, breaking up the bread gently. Bring to a gentle simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Stir the soup vigorously to create a whirlpool effect. Gradually pour in 4 large whisked eggs, letting them create ribbons as they cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Taste the soup and season with sea salt and black pepper. Add more broth if it's too thick.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, drizzle with olive oil, and garnish with parsley if desired.

Notes
For best results, store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, keeping bread separate to maintain texture. Freeze without eggs for up to 3 months.
