BLACK TRUFFLE SOUP ‘VGE’

Black Truffle Soup was created by Chef Paul Bocuse on February 25th 1975 for a banquet organized by President

Valéry Giscard d'Estaing and his wife Anne-Aymone at the Élysée Palace, in honour of his admission to the rank of

Knight of the Legion of Honour. The soup itself is composed of black truffles, foie gras, beef or poultry, carrots,

onions, celery, mushrooms, and of course butter, topped with a glorious crown of puff pastry.

SERVES 4 (a simplified recipe)

4tbsp white vermouth (original recipe uses Noilly Prat)

750 ml strong chicken stock

100g black truffle

200g foie gras or goose liver

100g of a mixture of very finely chopped carrot, onion, celery and

mushroom (in equal proportions) sautéed in butter, about 15 minutes

100g cooked chicken breast

sea salt

black pepper

puff pastry cut into 4 rounds (large enough to cover and extend over

the sides of the soup bowls, about 1/8 inch thick, roughly 60g each)

1 egg, beaten

In four ovenproof soup bowls, distribute

white vermouth and consommé, then add

thinly sliced truffles, diced foie gras,

vegetables, and thinly sliced chicken breast.

Season with salt and pepper. Top bowls

with puff pastry rounds, ensuring a secure

seal on the edges to encapsulate all the

flavours. Brush with beaten egg and bake

in a preheated oven at 220C/450°F for

18-20 minutes, until the pastry is puffed

and nicely browned. Remove from the

oven and serve.
