Sherry-Laced Garlic Soup With Pasta Stars

"A really, really (really) simple soup my girlfriend always makes me when I'm under the weather. It's a nice tweak on the vegetable-boullion-with-pasta-star-soup I normally request. From "Vegan Planet" by Robin Robertson."

directions

  • Place the garlic and olive oil in a blender or food processor and process until smooth.
  • Transfer to a large pot over medium heat and cook until very fragrant, about 3 minutes, being careful not to let the garlic brown.
  • Stir in the stock and season with salt and cayenne to taste.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain and divide among 4 soup bowls.
  • When ready to serve, add the sherry to the soup, ladle into the bowls, and serve at once.

  1. Really soothing and comforting. This will be a "go to" the next time we have an icky sick bug visiting our home. My only change would be to use a little less oil. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
     
  2. This is just wonderful! A real comfort dish. Thank you.
     
  3. This was a nice simple soup to have on a cool night. It was easy to make, and we both felt it was in the comfort food category. Made for Fall PAC 2008.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a 24 year old who works in the Chicago theater community. I have a little bit of a food obsession and love to plan meals, cook for myself, cook for my girlfriend, and cook for large groups of people. My friends and I have a weekly "Food Club" where I make them food and they bring me booze. It's pretty much awesome- I get to cook and eat AND get free beer. It changes weekly depending what's cooking, but we have Grill Club, Chili Club, Taco Club, Soup Club- you get the idea. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
