Wild Garlic Soup Recipe

Today I present you my wild garlic soup recipe with video.
I really like the wonderful soup with the light garlic taste.
Wild garlic is available from March to May.
You can recognize wild garlic by the smell of garlic and that is the best way to distinguish it from “autumn crocus” and “lily of the valley” – CAUTION, the latter are poisonous!
You can be on the safe side and grow your own wild garlic or buy wild garlic in a shop.
The color of the soup is important to me, it has to be fresh and green and have a gentle taste of wild garlic.
I wish you the best of luck and bon appetit!

Alternatively, wash fresh wild garlic leaves, pluck off the stalks and prepare the soup.
Prepare onions
Halve, peel and finely dice the shallot.
Alternatively, you can use an onion.
Sweat onions
Sauté the diced onions in a saucepan with a little butter for about 8 minutes
Prepare fond
Deglaze the onion base with dry white wine and fill up with vegetable broth.
Bring the stock to the boil and slowly pour the cream into the boiling liquid.
Prepare soup
Push the soup away from the stovetop, add wild garlic pesto to taste and mix.
Finely chopped fresh wild garlic leaves, bring to the boil once, then steep for 5 minutes, then mix.
Let the soup stand for another 5 minutes, season with salt, pepper, cayenne pepper and nutmeg.
Tip: A pinch of sugar harmoniously rounds off the taste of the soup.

Cut the tofu into cubes or slices.
Dredge tofu slices in flour.
Pull the floured tofu slice into the beaten, whisked and seasoned (salt, pepper, chili) egg.
Then place in the muesli on both sides and press gently on all sides.

Slowly fry the breaded tofu with a muesli crust on all sides with a little sunflower oil.
Mix up the wild garlic soup again and arrange on warm plates until foamy.
Add the fried tofu slices.
Decorate the soup with a few drops of wild garlic pesto.
Serve the soup quickly.
I wish you a good appetite!

Semolina dumplings, meatballs, diced salmon, diced cod and prawns are also suitable as a soup ingredient.
The soup mixes up better with cold butter. Put some of the butter, diced into small pieces, in the fridge or in the freezer.

3. Prepare Wild Garlic Cream Soup or Foam Soup
You can prepare the green soup as a wild garlic foam soup or as a wild garlic cream soup, I will briefly explain the differences.
The simplest soup with wild garlic is the wild garlic cream soup!
Tip from chef Thomas Sixt
3.1 Wild Garlic Cream Soup
The wild garlic cream soup is lightly thickened. She is creamy in appearance.
You can add potatoes to the soup set to create a natural binding, or thicken the soup later with cornstarch mixed with cold water to taste.
The wild garlic cream soup is a great soup for Easter.
For Easter I like to prepare poached quail eggs.
You can prepare wild garlic cream soup with or without potatoes.
Potatoes make the soup creamier.
3.2 Wild Garlic Foam Soup
This is the lighter version of the soup and it comes with almost no binding.
The soup is mixed with cold butter before serving and the foam promises a special taste experience.
4. How to Prepare Wild Garlic Soup in the Thermomix
You can easily prepare the soup in the Thermomix or similar devices.
- One or two small, peeled, halved onions
- Chop level 5 for 20 seconds
- Sweat at 120°C for 5 minutes with 30 g butter
- 100 ml white wine and
- Add 500 ml vegetable stock and cook for 10 minutes at 120°C.
- Wild garlic leaves or wild garlic pesto and
- Add 250 ml cream, salt, pepper, chili and nutmeg

5. Prepare Wild Garlic Soup like a Star Chef
In the Bavarian star kitchen we prepared the soup as follows:
- Sauté finely diced onions in butter
- Deglaze with white wine
- Top up with chicken broth/vegetable broth and bring to the boil
- Slowly add the cream and simmer.
- Season the soup base with salt, pepper, nutmeg and cayenne pepper.
- Then mix in the wild garlic leaves
- Stir the soup over ice to preserve the color
- When the guests arrive, boil quickly and briefly
- Mix the soup with cold pieces of butter until fluffy and serve.
The wild garlic gourmet soup, prepared with chicken broth, is a treat for the palate. Vegan or vegetarian, the soup is cooked with vegetable broth!

6. Tip: Prepare Wild Garlic Soup with Pesto
I like this way of preparing it with wild garlic pesto because it is practical and the color is retained very well.
At the same time, you can control the wild garlic taste better with the pesto.
A little pesto: light wild garlic taste – more pesto: strong wild garlic taste
I add the wild garlic cooking video here.
Cream soup + wild garlic pesto results in fresh, bright green gourmet *** wild garlic soup!

At the moment it's just teeming with asparagus soups everywhere 😀 I was very grateful to find an alternative here, which is actually totally in season right now. 🙂 I love the taste of wild garlic and just love the freshness that this plant brings everywhere. Whether as a pesto (I've already discovered it here – that will be my next project!) or soup or topping… wild garlic is really underestimated by many.

Hello Marcella, thank you very much for your message, which makes me happy 🙂 I've already made wild garlic pesto twice this year and the soup is available at the weekend. By the way, asparagus is a great addition to soups. Kind regards Thomas
