Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large soup pot. Add onion and garlic, cook over medium heat for 10 to12 minutes. The onion and garlic will begin to caramelize. Add the wine and continue to cook for 10 minutes. Add the stock and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Add the bread cubes, and allow the soup to sit without heat for 10 minutes. Remove the bay leaf. Using a hand held blender, puree until smooth. Add the cream and adjust the seasonings. Serve in a large shallow bowl. Garnish with the cheese.
