Sopa de cebollin

Sopa de cebollin is a traditional soup originating from Venezuela. Although there are some variations, the soup is usually prepared with chives, flour, butter, oil, white wine, beef stock, and cream. The chives are sautéed in butter and oil until wilted, but not burned, as the flavor will become bitter.

The flour, salt, pepper, white wine, and beef stock are all gradually added to the pot, and the combination is simmered until the liquid is reduced to a quarter. The cream is then added to the soup, and it is simmered for a few minutes more before the soup is ready to be served.

If desired, this aromatic soup can be garnished with toasted pieces of bread or grated cheese on top.
