Two teaspoons of extra-virgin olive oil
Two cups of water
Just one bay leaf
Two heads of garlic, or around twenty cloves, peeled and minced
Finely cut one medium onion.
Sodium-free chicken broth, measuring 4 cups
thyme, either fresh (four sprigs) or dried (one teaspoon)
freshly ground black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon
four massive egg yolks
(Optional) 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
Toasted four pieces of crusty bread
Follow these steps:
Spices for Sauteing: Olive oil should be heated in a big saucepan over medium heat. Include the diced onion and minced garlic. About five to seven minutes into the sautéing process, the vegetables should be softened and fragrant. Make sure the garlic doesn't brown.
Season with salt and add liquid: Mix the chicken broth with the water. Pepper, bay leaf, and thyme should be added. After the ingredients have come to a boil, lower the heat to low and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
