Never have I ever had any type of cooking education. I've learned everything on the go as a guy who's gotta eat. Channels like this one have told me so much, it's really amazing. I went from zero to making my own stock and showing my wife proudly what I can do. Thank you so much!

Same here. I learned from a combination of channels, like this one, the Food Network, and some tips from my mom when she stopped cooking. I was basically forced to learn out of necessity, and wound up loving it. I can cook whole meals now and even Sunday dinner from scratch. I'm not married nor do I have kids yet, but when most women find out that I can practically cook anything from scratch they usually are very impressed. Lol

Currently I’ve only just started my second semester of culinary school but with all the shutdowns due to the pandemic my classes have not been permitted to meet in person so my peers and I have been stuck at home learning theatricals since we don’t have access to the academy’s kitchen or pantry. Lessons like this though have been a god send as we individually do what we can to augment our online courses with practical experimentation. Recipes featuring Inexpensive and common ingredients alongside innovative techniques are just what we need.

I have a chronic illness that leads to me being very sick quite often, typically bedridden or hospitalized. Thanks to that I have lost a lot of weight and struggle to find gentle things to eat. This seems like it would be perfect, not overly spiced, nutritious, and with some easily digestible protein from the egg. Going to have to remember this, would be an excellent way to use the frozen chicken broth we keep on hand! Thank you for the recipe!

I am nearly 64 years old and started proper cooking only after 50, when I took half retirement. I had to struggle to learn cooking as a science and art and just anything just to eat. I went about it systematically, learning local traditional recipes from friends and close relatives. And then came KZread teachers. They are a boon. I have learnt so much from videos like this, some international recipes, especially ones which can blend with our cuisine. Today I am confident enough, and my duaghters ask me to start a channel on KZread on my own 😀. But I know I am still learning. There is no end to it. And I am enjoying cooking and baking different cuisine, Indian, Asian and western. As far as I can get the right ingredients. I love the gorgeous salads and soups from European cuisine. And this one promises to be easy and great tasting. Will certainly give this a try. Thank you Stefan for this video.

I've never had trouble loving garlic just the way it is, germ and all.

Blanching is a great idea for garlic. The most-desired flavor compounds are oil-soluble, and bitter compounds are usually water soluble. So a little time in some hot water will selectively draw out the bitter compounds while leaving the flavor compounds largely untouched.

Love the english spoken by a Frenchman.

Absolutely loved Lyons. I had a French friend in Aberdeen, Scotland who invited me to spend some time with her at her home in St Priest during the summer of 1989! It was truly magical, and Bastille Day for the 200th anniversary on the shore of Lac Du Annecy was just tremendous!

Stephan, I was trained in classic French cuisine by an Austrian chef when I was young. Thank you so much for helping me sharpen my skills.

awww, we make a very similar one down here in spain but we also add a bit of ham and some smoked paprika. YUM!

I've started using smoked paprika and I love it. So much flavor!

I made this soup today, and according to my husband & sister, it turned out great! I was especially interested in it because with its ingredients, it can be used as part of a ketogenic diet. As mentioned by Stephane, it is mild-tasting and "creamy" in a different way from actual cream-added soups. We thought it would be good with chicken or shrimp added to it, too. Extra notes: I used an organic free-range chicken broth from the grocery store -- I did not make the broth from scratch. I did add a carrot, celery, & onion to the store-bought broth and simmered it for a while, in the hope of adding some extra flavor to it. I used fresh sage as Stephane showed, which in my opinion was the biggest flavor booster in the recipe. I used avocado oil (rather than peanut or sunflower), which worked out fine, too. It took a bit of time to get the garlic ready, but after that the recipe went together well. I plan to make it again, and I'd recommend it to others!

FINALLY... the one and only recipe for a garlic soup. Thanks A LOT. Thumbs up!

In Greece, it's common to bind soup with a sauce called αυγολέμονο, which is similar to mayonnaise, only it's eggs thickened with lemon juice instead of emulsifying them with oil. The soups thickened this way are also called that (e.g. κοτόσουπα αυγολέμονο).

avgolemono in case anyone wants to search this, you temper the eggs with a bit of hot broth and then pour it in to thicken the soup.

@sazji

Panagiotes Koutelidakes It’s not the lemon juice that thickens the eggs though; they’re cooked but not to the point of curdling. That’s the fine point of making successful avgolemono - getting the temperature of the broth and eggs right so that it thickens without overcooking. A similar kind of thickening happens with what’s called a “boiled custard” it the west. Only it’s not really boiled, because that would wreck it!

@jeanniegriffin1692

Is whole eggs or just the yolk(?)! I'm trying to remember.. 🌹🤠🌹🌹

@jaycee1373

4 жыл бұрын

Jeannie Griffin Use both. The secret is to separate whites from yolk. For the best avgolemono, the whites are put in large bowl, and the yolks are separated to a small custard/pudding bowl. Beat the whites to a froth. Break up and whisk yolks in the small bowl. Whisk lemon juice to frothy whites in larger bowl. Next, slowly whisk yolks to the whisked whites and lemon juice in the larger bowl. Once mixed, use a ladle of hot liquid and very slowly introduce the liquid to the egg and lemon mixture in the larger bowl. Add just a little at a time while constantly whisking so eggs do not curdle. The other secret is not to introduce boiling liquid, but rather liquid from the pot that has been removed from the heat source for a few minutes. Once the egg and lemon mixture in the larger bowl has been brought to a warm/equivalent temperature of liquid in the pot, pour the contents of the larger bowl to the liquid in the pot while vigorously stirring. My beautiful mother, long departed, taught me this and it comes out perfect every time. Passing on the love.

Stephan, I love how you use what ever tools are at your disposal. Sure having all the tools needed in a kitchen helps, but you prove the point that tools do not make a great chef. Great chefs improvise when needed and can still make the dish work. Great job!

Merci merci merci! Love your passion on the kitchen and I would be saying thanks all day for permitting us to know about french cuisine. Regards from Spain.

I rather use as a binding agent creme fraiche or heavy whipping cream, and I add some white wine during the cooking. And piment d'espelette is great spice! Nice presentation!

French Cooking Academy Hi Chef! I am so happy I made this. My husband loved it. It's delicious! The only thing I changed was that I used an immersion blender in the soup before I added the mayonnaise and it made it much creamier. I have been making mayonnaise with my immersion blender for years, but your method was just as easy and almost as quick. I learn so much from you, and I love to cook. Thank you for your videos.

I have made it many times and enjoy it morning and more

Thanks for this video! Really enjoy your enthusiasm and your explanations!

I was getting ready to try a garlic soup with the same ingredients (except for the mayonnaise) and I'm, glad I waited because that one used the bread to thicken the soup. This, I think is much better. Better looking as well. Merci.
