Chilled Strawberry Soup: Ideal Antidote for a Hot Day
Chilled fruit soups, Scandinavian in origin, provide a perfectly light dessert for those hot summer nights. This strawberry soup, luscious and creamy, is sure to hit the spot.
Strawberry Soup
2 cups fresh strawberries, washed and sliced
1/4 cup sugar or sugar substitute
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk
1/2 cup plain or vanilla yogurt
Combine the strawberries and sugar or sugar substitute in a medium pan; cook over low heat for about ten minutes.
In a blender, blend the heavy cream, milk, and yogurt until frothy. Pour half of the mixture in a large bowl. Add the strawberry mixture to the other half of the mixture and blend. Fold this blended strawberry mixture into the large bowl. Chill for at least 8 hours.
Garnish with sliced strawberries, if desired
Serves 4-6 (in my household, it's closer to 4)
