1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2" sprig fresh thyme, plus more for garnish
1 large can (27 ounces) clam juice or 3 bottles (8 ounces
each)
6 large cleaned, cooked shrimp, neatly diced
1. Melt butter in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-low
heat. Add onion, cover and cook 3 to 4 minutes, until
translucent. Meanwhile, bring cream and thyme to a boil
in a separate small saucepan, reduce heat slightly and
cook until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Remove thyme and let cream cool.
2. Add clam juice to saucepan with onion and bring to a
boil; reduce heat slightly and cook 5 minutes. Cool; stir
in reduced cream. In a blender in two batches, starting
on low and increasing to high, puree broth mixture until
smooth. Chill in an airtight container until just cool or
cold. Ladle soup into four bowls; garnish each with
diced shrimp and a small sprig of thyme.
This ivory-colored soup, garnished with plump, pink diced
shrimp, is creamy, fragrant and elegant. The soup itself is made
with only six ingredients.
