Part 4/5:
Once the potatoes are cooked, the thyme is removed, and the soup is pureed to achieve a smooth consistency. The puree is then strained through a sieve (SI) to ensure a velvety texture. The addition of cream and a generous amount of butter results in a rich, comforting soup that is garnished with croutons for a delightful crunch.
A Taste of Resilience
Recreating the Bag e Cesy soup not only serves as a culinary endeavor but also as a means of paying homage to the resilience of those who survived that tragic night. This dish symbolizes comfort in adversity, a warm embrace after bitter cold, and the spirit of humanity that shines even in the darkest of moments.
