Garbure gasconne is a thick southwestern French peasant soup of ham hock, cabbage, white beans, potatoes and root vegetables, finished with confit duck and served over toast.
The garbure is one of the canonical Gascon dishes, traditionally a winter farmer's meal in the Bearn and Gers. The Bordeaux versions usually include confit duck leg, white tarbais beans and Bayonne ham hock. Le Petit Gascon and La Tupina serve it through the cold months.
