1 tbspolive oil

Instructions

Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Stir in the roughly chopped wild garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until it wilts slightly.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat, cover, and let it cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until the wild garlic is tender.
While the soup is simmering, prepare the croutons. Cut the stale white bread into small cubes. Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the bread cubes and toast them until golden brown and crispy, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
Remove the soup from the heat. Carefully blend the soup with an immersion blender until completely smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a regular blender and blend until smooth (be cautious when blending hot liquids).
Stir in the heavy cream. Return the soup to low heat and warm through, but do not boil. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Ladle the velvety wild garlic cream soup into bowls and garnish with the crispy croutons. Serve immediately.

💡 Tipp

For a vegan version, simply substitute the butter with olive oil and the heavy cream with a plant-based cream alternative like oat or cashew cream. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg for an extra layer of flavor.
