SIMPLE CUCUMBER SOUP



Simple Cucumber Soup image

The most simple yet one of the best soups I had so far. A simplified version of my mum's cucumber soup. No need for salt, pepper, or seasonings, just a good vegetable broth. I like to have it with a good slice of toasted bread and some good cheese.

Time 40m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon butter, or more to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small yellow onion, chopped
1 large clove garlic, minced
2 large English cucumbers, peeled and thinly sliced
2 small zucchinis, peeled and thinly sliced
3 cups vegetable broth

Steps:

  • Melt butter with the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in the butter mixture until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add cucumber and zucchini slices; cook and stir until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour vegetable broth over the mixture; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and let simmer until the vegetables are cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and cool a few minutes.
  • Pour soup into a blender no more than half full. Cover and hold lid in place with a towel; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth.

CUCUMBER SOUP

The refreshing cucumber soup is served cold, so it will go down well on a summer's day. Ladle it into bowls for a smaller gathering, or pour into small cups for an amuse-bouche.

CHILLED CUCUMBER SOUP WITH AVOCADO TOAST



Chilled Cucumber Soup With Avocado Toast image

A chilled cucumber soup, whirled together in the blender to serve as an instant dinner, is one of the quiet rewards of midsummer. The trick to making it hearty enough is to not stint on the seasonings, especially when something as mild as cucumber is the main ingredient. Garlic, plenty of herbs, jalapeño and anchovy add plenty of flavor, while buttermilk contributes a creamy, light texture. You could serve this with nothing more than some crusty or toasted bread on the side and be satisfied, but a topping of soft avocado dressed with a little lemon juice and feta cheese fills out the meal nicely. And the muted green colors of avocado toast and cucumber soup look as cooling as they taste.

1 ear of corn, shucked, kernels sliced off
