Traunkirchen Wild Garlic Soup – the Recipe
Wild garlic season has arrived in the Salzkammergut – right on our doorstep. And with it comes one of our favourite spring recipes: Traunkirchen wild garlic soup.
Ingredients
- Spring onion
- clarified butter
- 2 tbsp semolina
- 1 l water
- Salt, pepper
- 2 handfuls of fresh wild garlic
- A splash of cream
- 1 tbsp miso
- A dash of soy sauce (e.g. LUVI Fermente)
Method
Sauté the onion in clarified butter, add the semolina, then pour in the water while stirring constantly. Season with salt and pepper and let it simmer until the soup turns creamy.
Then add the wild garlic, cream, miso and soy sauce and let it steep for 2–3 minutes – do not let it boil again!
Blend everything with a stick blender until frothy and serve with good bread topped with chives.
So quick, and so good.
⚠️ Careful: wild garlic has a strong garlic smell – the poisonous lily of the valley has none. When in doubt, rub a leaf and smell it.
In spring you'll find wild garlic in the woods around Traunkirchen – just follow your nose. Its characteristic garlicky scent carries a long way.
The full wild garlic experience: pick it yourself in the woods, cook the soup, enjoy Lake Traunsee.
