Tips & Tricks
Cook the flour for at least 1 minute to remove the raw taste. This is what gives the soup its classic creamy thickness.
Slowly add the chicken stock while whisking to avoid lumps in the white base.
Cream can split at high heat. Simmer gently and switch off the flame after adding it.
Finish with a small knob of butter. It gives a glossy, café-style finish and smooth mouthfeel.
