I think I may love you. This sounds like one of the few soups of this sort that I could eat without it having a chicken broth base. (I just worked out a squash-apple-curry soup that uses apple cider/juice and chicken broth ... need to write that one down ....)
Could bourbon be substituted for Scotch, or would that fuck up the taste too badly, do you think? I love bourbon, and ... don't love scotch. *ducks* I used to when I was young, but no longer.
Also, I love your timing method. Makes great sense to me.
It's fucking amazing. Which is not something I usually say about my cooking. I sort of stumbled over it by accident when I had an acorn squash I needed to use somehow, which led to the prototype version of this soup-which sucked, but made illuminated the True Path, and this time it all came together in a supernova of deliciousnes. And garlic.
Re: bourbon: probably? If the issue is that you don't think you'd like the taste of the scotch, I really don't think that will be a problem: it blends beautifully (hence the need to put it in early). If the issue is that you don't happen to own any scotch, then, I say, there is one foolproof way to find out.
Not that much, really. Mater & I each had a big bowl tonight, and there are three big bowls left. If it's not the only thing you're eating, could serve ten; if the soup = the meal, serves six well or five to bursting point.
Except it'd be one slim cookbook; there'd be nothing else to go in it. :/ But it is clear to me that there is a market for garlic-oriented recipes that is just begging to be milked by somebody who has figured out how to make more than two palatable dishes in her life.

IT IS YUM. And nutritious and stuff, being full of fiber and vitamins and all these other things they tell me are good for normal functioning.
