Refreshing Zucchini Soup

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The zucchini surplus has begun! This mild and refreshing soup is a cool way to rejuvenate at lunch. It also makes a nice opener for a light summer supper. Garnished with a dollop of sour cream and an herb sprig and it could definitely pass for haute cuisine.

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 medium zucchini, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 ½ cup vegetable or chicken stock

In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and cook over low heat until softened, about 7 to 8 minutes.

Add the garlic and zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally until softened, about 10 minutes. Keep the heat low enough that the garlic doesn’t brown; you want everything to sweat. Add the stock and ginger, and simmer until the vegetables are very soft, another 10 minutes or so.

Working in 2 batches, puree the soup in a blender or food processor until the soup is silky-smooth. Taste and season salt and pepper to your desired flavor. Like most soups, this is significantly better after a night in the refrigerator to let the flavors meld. Serve it hot or chilled for an uplifting dish.
