How to make escarole soup with almonds:

1. We gather all the ingredients to prepare the escarole soup with almonds.
2. In a pot, fry the almonds with 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Let them roast for 2-3 minutes and remove them. Peeled almonds are also often used for this dish.
3. Cut the bread into slices and peel the garlic, removing the central part so that they do not repeat themselves.
4. Add the garlic to the pot, let it brown for 1-2 minutes and remove. In the same way, add the bread until it is toasted on both sides.
5. Put the garlic, almonds and bread in a blender container, add a little water and salt. Mix these three ingredients well.
6. Bring water to a boil and add the washed and cut escarole. Let it boil again and strain.
7. Trick: In this way we remove any type of bitterness that the escarole may have.
8. Put the water back to boil with a little salt and add the escarole again. Add the almond and garlic sauce that we have previously beaten. Let boil for 15 minutes. Before serving, put a little paprika and stir.
