Soup du Barry (French: Potage Dubarry, Velouté Dubarry or Crème Dubarry) is a French soup made from cauliflower, potatoes, and stock (traditionally veal stock).[1] The use of stock makes it a velouté; the addition of cream and an egg-yolk makes it a crème.[2][1]: 322  It is named for Madame du Barry, mistress of King Louis XV of France.[3]
