Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium Sweet onion, finely diced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Truffle oil
- 2 teaspoons Fresh thyme, chopped
- 4 slices Crusty bread, sliced (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the butter and olive oil. Allow the butter to melt before adding the diced onion.
Sauté the onion for 5-6 minutes or until it becomes soft and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the unsweetened cocoa powder and cook for about 30 seconds to unlock its flavor.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir well to ensure the cocoa is fully dissolved.
Add the dark chocolate, stirring constantly, until it melts completely and is fully incorporated into the soup base.
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream, sea salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme. Allow the soup to simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Right before serving, drizzle a small amount of truffle oil over the top of each bowl for a luxurious aroma and flavor boost.
Serve hot with crusty bread on the side for dipping.
