Step-by-step Guide

Another Way to Make

Slice the garlic and lightly brown them in a saucepan with a bit of olive oil over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes, until they start to turn golden.
Add crumbled stale bread and let it sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until it is well coated with oil and slightly golden.
Add the water and bring to a boil; then, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.
Break down the bread with a manual whisk until you achieve a smooth and homogeneous texture, free of lumps.
Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped almonds and hazelnuts, spreading it evenly over the dish before serving.

To make the poaching

Submerge the eggs without shells in almost boiling water, at a temperature of 85-90 °C, for 3-4 minutes. Add a splash of vinegar to the water to help keep the egg white together. Before placing the eggs, stir the water with a spoon to create a gentle whirlpool, which will help the egg white wrap around the yolk.

Recommendations & Tricks

Toast the slices of bread before adding them to the soup; this will help them retain a bit more texture and prevent them from completely falling apart.
Finely mince the garlic cloves to ensure they are evenly distributed and enhance the flavor of the soup.
Serve the soup immediately after cooking, and if there's any leftover, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator to prevent the bread from absorbing too much liquid and becoming mushy.
