Soup
Servings: 4 Preparation time: approx. 1 hour Di culty: Medium
• 200 g ready to cook prawns
• 1 tsp. of oil
• 1 diced shallot, butter
• 750 mL vegetable broth
• 400 mL cream
• 500 g parsley root
• 4 tbsp. whipped cream
• 1/2 bunch of smooth parsley (chopped)
• 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
• Salt
• Sparkling water;
• Garnish: a little chopped parsley, 4 so boiled eggs
Preparation:
The recipe calls for the full might of the ThermoBlend Elite: weighing, cooking, mixing, pureeing, keeping warm... and it all starts very simple: First heat water in the steel jug until it bubbles (100°C) and cook the two eggs for 5 to 6 minutes. Fry the shrimp in a pan for 3 minutes and place them on a paper towel to soak up excess fat. Melt the butter in the steel jug and let the shallots caramelize at 90°C for 1-2 minutes, then add the vegetable broth. Add the roughly chopped parsley roots and cook for about 15 minutes at 90°C. When the parsley roots are cooked add the cream and bring to a boil. Allow to cool briefl y and then puree fi nely on speed 4 for 30 seconds. Strain the white soup through a sieve into a saucepan. Put a quarter of the soup in the pot, add the chopped parsley and puree again for 10 seconds on speed 4, until the soup takes on a green color. Season the green soup with salt and cayenne pepper and strain it into a saucepan. Add a dash of sparkling water to each soup. To serve: Roll the eggs in the rest of the fi nely chopped parsley and cut them in half. Pour the white soup into deep plates, then add the green soup in the center. Put the shrimp on top and garnish the soup with the egg halves.
