Ingredients
  

For the Soup
  • 4 tablespoons Olive Oil high-quality extra virgin for best results
  • 8-10 cloves Garlic fresh cloves for the best aroma
  • 4 oz Stale Bread prevents mushiness when softened
  • 1 tablespoon Smoked Paprika can substitute with regular paprika for milder taste
  • 6-7 cups Chicken Stock or Vegetable Broth choose based on dietary preference
  • 4 large Eggs whisked to create silky ribbons
  • Sea Salt and Black Pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Large Pot

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Taste the soup and season with sea salt and black pepper. Add more broth if it's too thick.
  5. Ladle the soup into bowls, drizzle with olive oil, and garnish with parsley if desired.
