Ingredients:
1/3 lb. garlic (4-5 head) 4 c. chicken stock 4 c. water 1 t. dried thyme 1 t. dried rosemary 1 bay leaf 1/2 t. fine sea salt Freshly ground black pepper 2 t. minced parsley 1/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan
Directions:
Separate garlic cloves into heads and put onto cutting board. Press the cloves until they are slightly smashed. Discard the excess skins, but don’t peel the garlic. In a heavy 4-quart saucepan mix garlic, stock, water, thyme, rosemary, bay leaf and salt. Add a few grinds of black pepper. Bring to boil and boil gently for 20 minutes, until garlic is soft enough to smash with the side of a spoon. Pour soup through a fine-mesh sieve set over a large bowl, pressing with a wooden spoon to extract all the liquid. Return soup to saucepan. Reheat, adding more salt and pepper. Serve piping hot, sprinkle with parsley and parmesan.
