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.

AVOCADO-CUCUMBER SOUP



Avocado-Cucumber Soup image

This simple but elegant soup graced the table at one of the monthly luncheons held by the Thursday Afternoon Cooking Club, an organization of Wichita, Kan., women that has been meeting since 1894. Each month, the 24 women of the club gather over their best tableware to share recipes and cooking tips. English cucumbers work well for this recipe, but cucumbers fresh from the garden are a great choice if you have them. The soup could also be blended and served chilled in small cups and passed around on a tray for a cocktail party.

Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups plain yogurt (not Greek)
2 cups half and half
Salt and white pepper to taste
1 1/2 avocados, finely diced
3 small English cucumbers, peeled, seeded and finely-diced
1 tablespoon grated onion

Tips:

  • Choose the right cucumbers: For the best flavor, use fresh, firm cucumbers. Avoid cucumbers that are wilted or have blemishes.
  • Peel the cucumbers if desired: Peeling the cucumbers is optional, but it will give the soup a smoother texture. If you do peel the cucumbers, be sure to remove the seeds as well.
  • Use ripe avocados: Ripe avocados will give the soup a creamy texture and rich flavor. Avoid avocados that are hard or have brown spots.
  • Season the soup to taste: The amount of salt, pepper, and cumin that you add to the soup will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Serve the soup chilled or warm: This soup can be served either chilled or warm. If you are serving it chilled, be sure to let it cool completely before refrigerating.
