Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 10 medium garlic cloves, peeled (about 1 large head); 6 fresh sage leaves; 2 bay leaves; 2 large fresh thyme sprigs; 6 cups water (or 3 cups water and 3 cups chicken or vegetable broth); 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed; 6 large egg yolks; 1 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated (about 3 ounces); black pepper, freshly ground; 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil, for serving

Servings: persons

10 medium garlic cloves, peeled (about 1 large head)
6 fresh sage leaves
2 bay leaves
2 large fresh thyme sprigs
6 cups water (or 3 cups water and 3 cups chicken or vegetable broth)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
6 large egg yolks
1 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated (about 3 ounces)
black pepper, freshly ground
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil, for serving

1
Halve each garlic clove and remove the germ in the center; discard the germ. Thinly slice the garlic and place in a large saucepan.
2
Tie the sage, bay leaves, and thyme together with butcher's twine, or bundle them in a piece of cheesecloth tied closed with twine. Place the herb bundle in the saucepan, along with the water (or water and broth) and the measured salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat to low, and simmer gently for 30 minutes. Discard the herb bundle, keeping the broth at a simmer.
3
Place the yolks and cheese in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Add a few ladlefuls of soup to the cheese mixture and whisk until smooth. While whisking the soup in the saucepan, gradually add the cheese-soup mixture in a steady stream (the yolks will thicken the soup somewhat). Remove the pot from the heat and whisk for 1 minute more (if you keep it over the heat too long, the yolks may curdle). Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately, with a drizzle of olive oil over each portion.
