Dubarri soup
5 servings
50 minutes
The 'Dubarry' soup is an exquisite representative of European cuisine, named after the famous Madame Dubarry, the favorite of King Louis XV. The main ingredient of this refined dish is tender cauliflower, giving the soup a velvety texture and subtle creamy flavor. The light aroma of roasted flour and butter is complemented by soft notes of milk and spices, creating a harmonious blend. The final touch is an airy mixture of sour cream and egg yolks, making the soup even richer and more delicate. It is served hot, sprinkled with crispy croutons that add an interesting contrast in textures. Ideal as a light first course for a festive lunch or cozy family dinner.
