Cheesesoup

For this cheese soup you use fish stock as a base. That gives the whole thing a very special taste!

Ingredients for 2 people

1 Tbsp margarine
1 Tbsp flour
500 ml fish stock
1/2 onion
150 g grated hard cheese
1 egg yolk
2 Tbsp whipping cream
1 pinch of coarse sea salt


Preparation

First melt the margarine in a large pot. Then add the flour and mix everything into a thick lump.

Add the fish stock in portions and stir everything until smooth. Bring to the boil briefly.

Peel the onion, chop it finely and cook it in the soup for 10 minutes.

The grated cheese...

...add it to the soup and let it slowly melt over medium heat.

In a separate glass, mix the egg yolks with the cream and salt, ...

...add to the soup and stir in.

Then serve the soup straight away, preferably with fresh bread and butter on the side.

I sprinkled a bit of licorice salt over the soup, on the one hand for the taste - on the other hand for the look!
