Spinach Bisque

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, allspice, and ginger. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent.

2. 2

   Add the spinach and cook, stirring constantly, until wilted. Then, add the chicken broth and bring to a boil.

   Tip: Be careful not to splash the soup.

3. 3

   Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth.

   Tip: Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches.

4. 4

   Return the soup to the pot and stir in the heavy cream. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

   Tip: Adjust the seasoning as needed.

5. 5

   Serve the bisque hot, garnished with fresh parsley and a swirl of cream if desired.

   Tip: You can also serve with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

6. 6

   Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy!

   Tip: Be sure to serve immediately, as the soup will thicken slightly as it cools.
