COLD CUCUMBER AND TARRAGON SOUP
Cucumber and Tarragon Cold Soup: The Perfect summer Dish
As I mentioned in my previous post, soup season may be over, but that does not mean we cannot enjoy a delicious bowl of soup in the summer. And what better way to welcome the summer season than with a refreshing and healthy cold soup?
The Inspiration for the Soup
I discovered this recipe for cucumber and tarragon cold soup in a French magazine, and I could not resist the combination of flavors. I made a few tweaks to the original recipe to make it even better, and the result was a refreshing and flavourful soup that is perfect for the summer season.
The Benefits of Skyr
One of the key ingredients in this recipe is Skyr, an Icelandic yogurt that is high in protein and fat-free. Skyr has been a staple in Icelandic cuisine for centuries, and it has become increasingly popular around the world in recent years.
Skyr is made from skimmed milk, which is strained to remove the whey, resulting in a thicker and creamier yogurt. Skyr is a great source of protein, with around 15-20 grams of protein per serving. It is also fat-free and low in sugar, making it a healthy choice for those watching their calorie intake.
The Benefits of Cucumber and Tarragon
Cucumbers are a hydrating vegetable that are low in calories and high in nutrients. They are a great source of vitamin C, vitamin K, and potassium. Cucumbers also contain antioxidants that can help reduce inflammation in the body.
Tarragon is an herb that is commonly used in French cuisine. It has a subtle licorice aroma that pairs well with the cool and refreshing taste of cucumber. Tarragon is also rich in antioxidants, and it has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties.
So, experience a taste of summer with every spoonful of this delicious and easy-peasy cold soup…
