ULTRAFAST AVOCADO SOUP
Little or no cooking is one way to keep the kitchen cool in the summer, but if the food you produce is cool (and delicious, of course), that's a real plus. Cold soups are a common solution. It's difficult to imagine one simpler than this one, and impossible to imagine one richer and creamier.

Steps:
- Make the soup: Heat a medium pot over medium-low. Add the oil and heat, then add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and slightly brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook to slightly brown, another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds, then add the vegetable broth.
- Allow the mixture to come to a simmer and cook until the onion and garlic are soft and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes, then add the almond milk and turn off the heat. Allow the mixture to cool to lukewarm.
- To finish the soup, combine the avocados, cilantro, lime juice, broth mixture and a pinch of salt in a blender. Blend until completely smooth, adding up to ½ cup of broth or water as needed if the mixture is too thick. (You may need to do this in batches.) Taste and season with more salt if necessary. Chill if you prefer the soup cold.
- Make the chile oil: Heat a small saucepan over medium-low, then add the oil and chiles. Continuously stir the chiles in the hot oil until they become fragrant, deepen in color and stain the oil a red-orange hue, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor with a pinch of salt and pulse until the chiles are finely ground.
- Serve at room temperature or refrigerate until chilled to serve cold. Divide the soup among bowls and garnish with pepitas, chives, tortilla chips and chile oil.

COLD AVOCADO CORN SOUP WITH CILANTRO OIL

Steps:
- Make soup:
- Roast corn on rack of gas burner over high heat, turning occasionally with tongs, until kernels are charred in spots, 4 to 5 minutes. (Alternatively, heat a dry well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and roast corn over moderately high heat, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes.) Transfer corn to a cutting board and, when cool enough to handle, cut kernels from cob with a sharp knife, then cut cob into thirds.
- Bring kernels, cob pieces, 4 cups water, garlic, salt, and 1/2 cup onion to a boil in a 3-quart saucepan and boil until liquid is reduced to about 3 cups, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and cool, uncovered. Discard cob pieces.
- Purée corn mixture along with chile and remaining 3/4 cup onion in a blender, then pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on and then discarding solids. Return broth to cleaned blender.
- Quarter, pit, and peel 1 avocado, then add to blender with 2 tablespoons lime juice and purée until smooth. Transfer soup to a bowl and cover surface with plastic wrap. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill soup at least 1 hour.
- Prepare cilantro oil while soup chills:
- Purée cilantro, oil, and salt in cleaned blender, scraping down sides of blender several times. Pour oil into cleaned fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl and let drain 15 minutes (do not press on solids). Discard solids.
- Assemble soup:
- Halve and pit remaining avocado and scoop small balls from flesh with melon-ball cutter, then toss gently with remaining tablespoon lime juice in a bowl.
- Whisk together crema and remaining 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl until smooth.
- Season soup with salt and ladle into 6 shallow soup bowls. Divide avocado balls among bowls, then drizzle with crema and cilantro oil.
Tips:
- Use ripe avocados. The riper the avocados, the creamier and more flavorful your soup will be.
- Don't overcook the avocados. Avocados only need to be heated gently until they are soft. Overcooking them will make them tough and rubbery.
- Use a good quality chile oil. The chile oil is what gives this soup its flavor, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a chile oil that is made with real chiles and has a nice, smoky flavor.
- Serve the soup immediately. Avocado soup is best served immediately after it is made. The avocados will start to brown if they sit for too long.
- Garnish the soup with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings for avocado soup include cilantro, lime wedges, and crumbled queso fresco. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.
Conclusion:
Avocado soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up ripe avocados. With its creamy texture and smoky flavor, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you have some ripe avocados on hand, give this recipe a try!
