Baked new season’s garlic soup with egg

This soup was definitely not on any old Soho menus, as twenty-five years ago British people wouldn’t even consider a garlic soup as edible. I know, because having eaten this soup on many occasions in Spain, it seemed a natural for my menus then. Not one portion sold, which was a pity because Soho was the only place where you could get new season’s garlic in the early summer.
