urgggg, dnt mind pickled onions n beetroot but anything else icked ergggg, lol, my aunt has picked eggs n the thought of them turns my stomach, i cldnt possible bring myself to try one ol

i love garlic tho, but never had it pickled xxx

looks nice will try it tomorrow

garlic, unpeeled, sliced in half
3 cups chicken stock
3 cups water
1 boned, whole chicken breast
2 eggs
1-2 cloves garlic, reserved from the stock, julienned
1/4-1/2 lemon, juiced
salt and white pepper
1/2 cup julienned carrots
1/2 cup julienned leeks or green onions
minced parsley
Bring stock and water to a boil. Add garlic, then reduce heat and gently simmer for 30 minutes. Cool completely. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Reheat stock to a boil, then remove garlic. Reserve a couple cloves for the soup; otherwise, use the rest for another part of the meal, if you like--it's quite mellow at this point. Reduce heat to a bare simmer, allow a few minutes for the stock to cool a bit, thin slip in the chicken breast and poach for about 15 minutes. It should be just opaque. Remove and shred the chicken finely.

Beat the eggs in a small bowl, then whisk in 1/4 cup hot stock. Mix this mixture into the pot of simmering stock and stir for a few minutes to disperse the foam and thicken the soup. Stir in the chicken and julienned reserved garlic. Remove from heat, season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. When ready to serve, ladle into bowls and garnish with carrot and leek julienne and with minced parsley.

will have to have a go at it xx

Pickled garlic. First tried it in Dublin years ago, from some sort of indoor market.

What's it like? mmmm. Kind of sweet with a slight crunch and a hint of garlic, if that makes sense.

Great with dips of any sort or on it's own with drinky poos :)).
