you know it's really really cold outside

the winter has really hit hard here in Poland

raining mixed in with snow and it keeps snowing

This is the time that you know one usually a lot of people catch colds and flu

so I come up with my famous

Garlic Soup

Now this soup will help your amunity system to

fight off your

Colds and whatever ugly virus comes your way

Now you now that garlic is a natural antibiotic

I'm not saying this is to prevent you you know

If you still need you flu shot please go get it, any medical advice

please see a doctor not me I'm just letting you know how this helps me.

so try this Garlic soup

and you will see that it is absolute awesome, my friends love it

and it will give you onfffffff to your day

once you eat this, but

no kissing for one hour after you eat this

Ok let's start get started.

Ok take a medium pot or larger or smaller and we are going to add

about

2 tablespoons of olive oil

and you can use regular oil if you want

and we will just wait for it to heat up, and we throw 1 onion in there

and wait for the sizzle, okay it's sizzling.

So I take 1/2 of an onion

or a small one like I have here and roughly chopped

Put that in

and we basically keep it at medium high until we get

until we get it about , say , half soften.

Ok they are about half soften

I add about a 1/4 cup of butter

and we wait for that to melt

Now I will add about 1/2 a bulb of garlic that is about 6 to 8 cloves.

and I pressed it with this handy dandy presser.

If you do not have a presser then chop it as fine as you can.

And we add that to the pot.

Now at this point I do not want the garlic

to be over cooked

or burned

if it is on high

Keep moving it

until we break down the onions.

so keep it on low.

Now this is as far as I go, now

Grab some water and just pour that in

until I am about 2 inches from the top

with this size pot.

Just about like that.

now you can add water or less, but this is about where

I want it here for this size soup.

Now

to there we add 4 small potatoes

or 3 large potatoes, I usually cut them this way this way because

they basically cook faster for some reason

is a proven fact.

And put that in.

and about 1/2 of a large parsnip

or 1 small one, I kept them to about this size.

you are going to see why later.

Put that on there.

and 1 carrot, do not dice it for I will show you why later.

and that goes in.

and 1 cube of chicken stock, now if you do not

want to use this stock then you can use veggie stock

Since this is for me and my Vegetarian Girlfriend is not here, I will use this.

In you go, stock.

So because we used the stock we have to be careful how much salt we use

so I will add about 1/2 teaspoon of salt only.

Then I will taste it later.

Now we increase the heat, cover it, once it boils

reduce the heat to medium-low and keep and it on

a boil for about 25 to 30 minutes.

and we will be back.

Ok here we are rwe're back again now we do here

is grab the carrot and remove it

and put that on the side and now

you turn off the heat, let it cool down

and this is going to the blender. I will be back.

Where back, the soup has cooled down and everything is here.

Except for the carrot. Now what we do

Just turn it on

and

this what we want we want.

We take the liquid soup and

and we pour it all back into the pot

If you made a lot of soup then you may have to do this in two batches.

Okay all the soup is back again, had to do

this in two parts. Because of the size of my blender.

And now we add

out add our carrot we took out and sliced.

Now you can add more or less carrots.

Take 1 1/2 green onion stems

chopped just to give it some

color to this soup, add more or less.

Also the fresh ground pepper

Now here again you can add more or less

depending on whatever makes you happy.

I will add about 1/2 of a teaspoon.

Now stir that all around, see how that's coming, if you could smell this nice aroma.

of that garlic, boy oh boy your mother would be proud.

Now when you eat this, do you have any neighbors

that are bothering you, believe me when you eat this

they will all disappear

So

Cover it

Bring it to a boil

and now let it cook for about 15 to 20 minutes.

and will be back we're back

We are back

it's been about 15 minutes and you can see it has been boiling here really nicely.

Now I did come to it every five minutes

gave a nice stir, see how this has turned out.

really good but we're not done yet. Now

At this point it's important for the taste test.

see if it needs more salt or not.

Now remember this is for you not for me.

so you can add more or less, like you want.

and for me

It requires

a pinch of salt, some more

pepper and 1 1/2 tablespoon of parsley.

I am using dry you can use fresh.

Now

To finish it off

some 18 percent cream or you can use milk

now when you add this I want you to keep stirring

just add it very slowly to the soup

until you get it clear and the way you want it. .

Now we don't want to overdo it for it will become to milky.

and that's how we do it and how I want it.

Now look how that soup looks like,

and the smell is awesome.

So here is the soup it's now finished

you can see that it looks absolutely awesome

have a bowl of this we will clean your sinuses it will help you fight

any type colds or fever

it also is guaranteed

that once you eat a bowl like this

you keep all the neighbors away for awhile.

So here it is.
