Sopa Alentejana (Alentejo bread and garlic soup)

Those who know me know that I love garlic. And for those who didn't know it yet, let me tell you: I love garlic in all its variations.

That's why I always look forward to the new harvest of pink garlic from Lautrec, which is traditionally celebrated in this small medieval town at the beginning of August.

When the new harvest arrives, the pretty pink braids permeate the shop with their scent - and the home kitchen with it. During one of our recent visits to Lisbon, I was treated to a delicious soup - the Sopa Alentejana. The main ingredients? Bread, cilantro, olive oil, an egg and lots of garlic!

Since I immediately fell in love with this very simple yet delicious dish in Lisbon, I really wanted to try the soup here. It's easy!
