Yes, it s a lot of garlic but it tastes great
1 In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine garlic cloves and 3 cups of vegetable or chicken broth; bring to a boil and poach 15 minutes or until soft. Remove garlic cloves to a small bowl and mash with a fork; set aside. Cook and reduce chicken broth to a glaze; remove from heat and set aside.
2 Cook potatoes until a paring knife easily enters the potato
3 In a large soup pot over low heat, melt butter. Add onion and saute until soft. Drain potatoes; stir into butter and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Add remaining 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth and saved garlic. Increase heat to medium-high; simmer, uncovered, 25 minutes or until the potatoes are softened. Remove from heat and let cool 10 to 15 minutes.
4 In a food processor or blender, puree soup until smooth; return to soup pot. Add garlic glaze; stir until well blended.
5 NOTE: The soup can be made 1 to 2 days in advance up until this stage. Refrigerate until ready to finish.
6 Stir in heavy cream, milk, salt, and pepper; cook, over low heat, another 10 -15 minutes until piping hot. Remove from heat.
7 While waiting for soup to heat place cubes of brie in the bottom of each bowl the amount is up to you. Fill the bowl with hot soup and tear Ciabatta or other artisan bread into pieces drop into each bowl on top of the soup and serve.
I know this seems like a LOT of garlic however, it's really worth it.
