ZUCCHINI SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the 1/4 cup olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped zucchini and onions. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Increase the heat to high and add the water. Bring to a boil and cook for 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Working in batches, lay the sliced zucchini in a single layer in the skillet. Cook until golden, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt. Continue until all the sliced zucchini is cooked.
• Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and blend until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste, pour into bowls, drizzle with Lemon Oil and top with the fried zucchini.
• Combine the oil and lemon in a blender and blend until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve set over a liquid measuring cup. Set the lemon oil aside until ready to use. The oil can be stored in an airtight container and refrigerated for up to 3 days.

ZUCCHINI CHEESE SOUP (A.K.A. VACHE QUI RIT SOUP)

Steps:

• Put the zucchini and onion in a medium saucepan and add chicken stock. (The stock will not cover the vegetables.) Add salt and pepper, to taste, and cumin, if using.
• Bring to a boil then lower heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat, add cheese and puree. (An immersion blender works well and keeps dishes to a minimum.).
• Gently reheat to serve.
• NOTE: A herbed cream cheese, such as Kraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese with Garlic and Herbs, makes this soup really delicious!
