Cream Of Port Wine Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In a pot, heat the broth over medium heat until well heated, keeping it at a simmer. Do not bring to a boil. Beat the egg yolks and cream together until they are thick. Mix in wine, cinnamon, and salt. Temper egg yolk and broth. Pour mixture into the broth, mixing continually until the soup is well mixed and creamy. Do not let it boil. Serve with croutons sprinkled over soup.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan cook the leek, the celery, and the carrot with the bay leaf and the thyme in the butter over moderate heat, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened. Add the potatoes, peeled and sliced thin, and the broth and simmer the mixture, covered, for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are very tender. Discard the bay leaf and in a blender purée the soup in batches. Transfer the purée to the cleaned pan and stir in the half-and-half. Heat the soup over low heat, whisk in the Stilton, whisking until the cheese is melted and the soup is smooth, and whisk in the Port and salt and pepper to taste. (Do not let the soup boil.) Serve the soup garnished with the chives.
