Creamy turkey soup

Creamy turkey soup is a traditional recipe with roots in various cultures where roasted turkey leftovers are used to the fullest. This soup, very popular in several Latin American countries, is prepared especially during celebrations and holidays, when turkey is the star of the table. In Mexico, Colombia, and Venezuela, it is known simply as "turkey soup," while in other places, such as Argentina or Chile, it may be called "creamy turkey broth" or "creamy poultry soup." This preparation originates from home cooking, where creativity and the use of ingredients are essential. The use of bouquet garni and spices like cloves creates an aromatic broth that is combined with vegetables and a creamy mixture of milk and egg yolks to give it a unique, comforting, and very tasty texture.

This soup stands out not only for its flavor but also for its nutritional value, as it uses the bones and leftovers of the turkey to create a broth rich in collagen and flavor, which is then enriched with fresh vegetables and a creamy mixture. It is traditionally served with toasted crackers that provide a textural contrast and make the experience even more complete.

How to prepare creamy turkey soup

In a large pot, combine all the bones and any leftover skin from the roasted turkey with the bouquet garni and the cloves.

Add the water, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean pot.

Let it cool, then refrigerate, and when the broth is cold, remove the layer of fat from the surface.

Return the turkey broth to the heat.

Add the potato, carrot, green bell pepper, onion, garlic, and marjoram.

Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes, and season to taste with salt and black pepper.

Incorporate the milk mixed with the egg yolks and add, if using, the dry sherry, chopped turkey, and hard-boiled eggs.

Just before serving, add the butter.

Serve with toasted crackers spread with butter.
