CHILLED LEMON CUCUMBER AND YOGURT SOUP



Chilled Lemon Cucumber and Yogurt Soup image

A perfect soup for summertime-light and refreshing, getting its inspiration from Indian raita. The freshest ingredients you can find is key. Keep soup chilled until just before serving. From the book Healthy First Courses, a cookbook collection of recipes from Williams Sonoma. (I switched lemon cucumbers for standard cucumbers though.)

Time 10m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 -8 medium lemon cucumbers, peeled and coarsely chopped (or 3 standard cucumbers)
1 1/2 cups low-fat plain yogurt
1 cup low-fat buttermilk
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives, and 3 tablespoons fresh dill (NOT dried, NOT dried)
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes or 1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 cup water or 1/2 cup vegetable stock
1/4 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
3 tablespoons walnuts, toasted and chopped (can substitute hazelnuts or almonds)
fresh lemon juice, to lightly drizzle on each serving soup
cayenne
ice cube

Steps:

  • In food processor or blender, puree half of the cucumber, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary. Blend until smooth, about 20 seconds.
  • In a serving bowl, combine the pureed cucumber, yogurt, buttermilk, olive oil, garlic, fresh chives and dill, and pepper flakes. Stir to mix well.
  • Cut the remaining cucumber into 1/8 inch small dice. Stir into the pureed soup mixture and then stir in enough water or stock so that the soup is thin but not watery.
  • Add the salt and pepper and stir well. Refrigerate several hours and until well chilled.
  • Ladle soup into individual bowls and garnish with toasted nuts, a drizzle of lemon juice and a sprinkle of cayenne. Add an ice cube to each bowl to keep soup chilled.

CHILLED CUCUMBER YOGURT SOUP



Chilled Cucumber Yogurt Soup image

This recipe is slightly adapted from Celebrity Cruise Line's "Excite the Senses - A Culinary Journey with Celebrity Cruises" cookbook. I am a travel agent, and also write recipe reviews from cruise line's cookbooks on my company blog. I knew after tasting this one that I'd be doing it again and again! Not only is it healthy, but it also fulfilled my three E's of cooking: easy, elegant and economical. "Cook" time is minimum chilling time. I only use Greek yogurt, but feel free to use whatever you'd like.

SPICY CUCUMBERS WITH YOGURT, LEMON AND HERBS



Spicy Cucumbers With Yogurt, Lemon and Herbs image

This recipe brings together two contrasting components to create a bright summer dish. A simple yogurt sauce is dressed up with herbs and zest, then topped with cucumbers that have marinated in a spicy oil. Coriander, cumin and red-pepper flakes bloom in a neutral oil, and the cucumbers take on the flavors as they sit. For the yogurt, a variety of garden fresh herbs work well, but dill and mint are crucial. Both the yogurt and the cucumbers can be prepared up to a day in advance and kept refrigerated until serving. When you're ready, spread the yogurt sauce in a wide bowl or plate. Spoon the cucumbers on top evenly so each each bite gets a little yogurt and a little cucumber: One will temper the spiciness of the other. Save a handful of the herbs for a fresh garnish.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 pounds Persian cucumbers (about 8), ends trimmed and quartered lengthwise into spears, then crosswise into 2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1/4 cup grapeseed oil or other neutral oil, such as canola, safflower, sunflower oil
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
1/2 cup mint leaves, thinly sliced
1/4 cup dill, chopped
1/4 cup parsley leaves and tender stems, chopped
1 lemon
2 tablespoons olive oil
Black pepper
1/4 cup pine nuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Toss the cucumber pieces with 1 teaspoon salt and set in a colander in the sink to drain.
  • In a small pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the coriander and cumin, and toast until fragrant, stirring to avoid scorching, about 1 minute. Remove oil from heat, add red-pepper flakes and allow to cool.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the salted cucumber pieces with the scallions, spiced oil and apple cider vinegar. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes or overnight while you prepare the yogurt.
  • In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, half of the herbs (mint, dill and parsley), zest and juice of the lemon and the olive oil. Stir to incorporate, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the yogurt mixture on a plate or the bottom of a shallow bowl. Using a slotted spoon to drain the cucumbers and scallions of excess liquid, evenly place the cucumbers and scallions on top of the yogurt. Finish with the remaining chopped herbs and pine nuts (if using), and serve immediately.
