Directions

  1. To make soup: Peel onions; place them in an aluminum foil pouch with extra virgin olive oil and season with a large healthy pinch of salt. Seal onions in foil; place on a baking dish and bake in 300-degree oven for 2 1/2 hrs, till very soft.
  2. Meanwhile, remove green part of leek and throw away, Chop white part and wash well. Heat Tbsp. butter in a saucepan and saute/fry leeks till very tender but not browned. Add in stock and bring to a boil. Turn heat off, add in whole tarragon to liquid, as well as saffron. Cover pot, and allow to steep to infuse flavor. After 30 min, remove tarragon from liquid. When onions are ready, place them in a blender with all the liquid which was released from onions inside the pouch. Add in leek and saffron liquid to blender and blend to a fine puree.
  3. (Caution: Be careful when pureeing warm liquids in a blender. It should be done with the pulse option.) Stop blender; season with salt and cayenne pepper to taste, add in Pastis or possibly Pernod and remaining butter. Blend till butter is incorporated. Pour soup back into a saucepan and reheat.
  4. To serve, saute/fry rock shrimp and divide among 6 bowls, garnish with chervil and chives. Divide soup among bowls. The soup can be made a day in advance.
