Instructions
Prep
Tear day-old bread into 2cm pieces. Slice 12 garlic cloves thin. Chop 10g flat-leaf parsley. Measure out both pimentons, stock, salt, and pepper.
Bloom
Heat 60ml extra-virgin olive oil in a heavy pot over medium-low heat. Add sliced garlic, cook 3 minutes until pale gold. Remove from heat, stir in smoked sweet and hot pimenton for 15 seconds until fragrant.
Build
Return pot to medium heat. Add torn bread, toss 90 seconds to coat evenly in oil and pimenton. Pour in 1000ml hot vegetable stock with salt, bring to a simmer, cook 6 minutes until bread breaks down into a thick, cohesive soup.
Simmer
Lower heat to low. Crack 4 eggs gently onto the soup surface in opposite corners of the pot. Cover loosely with a lid, poach 4-5 minutes until egg whites set completely and yolks remain glossy and runny.
Plate
Ladle soup with both poached eggs into two warm clay bowls (2 eggs per bowl). Scatter black pepper and chopped parsley across the surface of each. Serve immediately while yolks are still runny.
