Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 1 organic lemon
- 800 grams Salsify
- salt
- freshly ground peppers
- freshly grated Nutmeg
- 6 eggs
- 1 bunch Cress
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- 150 grams cream cheese
Preparation steps
Rinse the lemon under hot water, pat dry and peel the zest with a vegetable peeler. Using a knife, cut away the remaining rind and pith. Squeeze out the juice and mix with 500 ml (approximately 2 cups) water in a large pot. Add the lemon zest. Rinse the salsify, peel and cut into 5 cm (approximately 2 inches) long pieces. Rinse under running water. Add to the lemon water, add a large pinch of salt and season with nutmeg. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, until softened.
Cook the eggs for 5-6 minutes in boiling water, shock in ice water, peel then cut in half. Trim the cress.
Remove the lemon zest and 1/2 the salsify from the soup. Purée the remaining salsify. Mix the cornstarch with a little cold water, add to the soup and bring to a boil. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until creamy then remove from the heat and stir in the cream cheese and reserved salsify. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg and divide between serving bowls. Place 3 egg halves in each bowl and garnish with cress. Serve.
