COLD CHERRY SOUP



Cold Cherry Soup image

Many versions of cold cherry soup originated in Hungary and Poland, where cooks would use sour cherries and a lot of sugar. Traditional cherry soups also are made with sour cream and heavy cream, and sometimes they are thickened with flour. I like this lighter version, which is made with drained yogurt instead of cream.

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield Serves six to eight

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 cups water
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup red wine
1/4 teaspoon salt
Grated zest of 1/2 lemon
1 1/2 pounds sweet, dark cherries
1 cup drained yogurt

Steps:

  • Pit the cherries, and place the pitted cherries in a bowl and the pits in a large soup pot. Add the water to the pot, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer five minutes. With a skimmer, remove the pits from the water. Add the sugar, red wine, salt and lemon zest, and bring back to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil five minutes, then add the cherries. Bring to a simmer, turn the heat to low, cover and simmer five minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Place the yogurt in a large bowl and slowly whisk in a cup of the liquid from the soup once it is no longer simmering. Whisk until the mixture is smooth. Slowly add the rest of the soup, and whisk or stir until smooth. Allow to cool, stirring from time to time, then refrigerate until cold. Before serving, you will have to stir or whisk again, as the liquid and yogurt will separate. Still, the soup is easily homogenized.
  • Serve in bowls or in glass tumblers. If you wish, garnish with additional halved, pitted fresh cherries.

1 1/2 pounds fresh sour cherries, rinsed, drained, and pitted (4 1/2 cups)
1 small clove garlic, minced (3/4 teaspoon)
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro, plus sprigs or blossoms for serving
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh dill, plus sprigs for serving
1/2 mini cucumber, finely chopped (1/3 cup)

  • Divide soup among 4 to 6 small bowls, and top each with cucumber, scallions, and herb sprigs. Serve with sour cream on the side.
