An unusual milk soup, easy to prepare, hearty, with a spicy taste. Alpine milk soup may well replace both the first and second courses. The soup is high in calories, but not enough to deny yourself the pleasure of eating a plate of such deliciousness.

How to cook Alpine milk soup

Step 1

Cut the bread into thin slices about 10 cm long and 5 cm wide. Melt the butter in a frying pan, lightly brown the bread over low heat on both sides. Put the bread croutons in a tureen.

Step 2

Bring milk to a boil, add sugar and salt. Rub the yolks with a fork.

Step 3

Reduce the heat, add the yolks to the milk, stirring constantly with a wooden spatula. When the milk begins to thicken and stick to the spatula, remove from heat and pour into a tureen over bread toasts. Sprinkle with grated cheese before serving.

Alpine milk soup - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use a different type of bread for the croutons?

Yes, you can use other types of bread like brioche or challah for a richer flavor. Stale bread works particularly well. Adjust browning time as needed.

What's the best way to prevent the milk from scorching?

Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat, and stir the milk frequently, especially after adding the yolks. This helps prevent sticking and burning.

Can I use a milk alternative in this recipe?

Yes, you can use almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk. Keep in mind that the flavor and thickness will be slightly different. You might need to add a thickening agent like cornstarch for similar consistency.

How do I adjust the recipe for a larger or smaller serving size?

Simply adjust the ingredient quantities proportionally. For example, to halve the recipe, use half the amount of each ingredient. Browning the croutons might require slightly less time if batch size is decreased.

Can I add any spices to the milk soup?

Yes, a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon can add a warm, comforting flavor. Add it to the milk while heating, before adding the yolks.

What type of cheese is best for sprinkling on top?

Gruyere or Parmesan are traditional choices, but you can experiment with other hard cheeses like Asiago or Pecorino Romano for a different flavor profile.

How long can I store leftover Alpine milk soup?

Leftover soup should be refrigerated promptly and consumed within 24 hours. The bread croutons tend to get soggy over time, so it's best served fresh.
