Laravel: Change Blade Parser {{ }} to Custom Parser?

I have plain text containing URL markup like this:

$string = "This is a good \[example\]\(http://www.example.com\) for my problem."

Now I would like to pass this variable $string to a Blade template and parse it like this:

This is a good <a href='http://www.example.com'>example</a> for my problem.

However, since {{ }} uses htmspecialchars the output looks like that:

This is a good &lt ;a href='http://www.example.com'&gt ;example&lt ;/a&gt ; for my problem.

At the moment, I parse the string with a custom function in a controller to the wanted output and present it in a Blade template with {! $parsed_string !}. Is there a way to change the default behavior of the function {{}} in Laravel?

If You do not want to escape any special character inside {{ }}, you can use
{!!....Your HTML code....!!}

Using {!! $yourVariable !!} will let you output html elements.

From laravel docs:

Displaying Unescaped Data

By default, Blade {{ }} statements are automatically sent through PHP's htmlspecialchars function to prevent XSS attacks. If you do not want your data to be escaped, you may use the following syntax:

Hello, {!! $name !!}.
