    Winter Comfort Food

    It is true that I usually make meals and dishes that I normally wouldn’t make for under any circumstances. Cream soups for example.

    You are right, I rarely use cream in my soups here at home. A good portion of butter, yes! But cream, no. However I have a good reason today. I was making this powerful roasted garlic soup and the bad weather outside just cried out for a good amount of cream.

    Not that I mind.

    It was absolutely delicious!

    Even the hubs, who actually keeps away from any type of blended thick cream soups, agreed that this soup was a downright winner.

    Yay!

    See, it’s not my fault only.

    In this case the cream really does this garlic soup justice big time.

    The smoky sweet garlic cloves, that tender and velvety shredded chicken. And then the rich chicken stock and creamy taste support each other perfectly.

    This is such a rich soup and yet it is so simple to make.
