How To Make chilled cucumber soup
-
Step 1In a blender, add all the soup ingredients except the oil. Place the lid and remove the filler cap. Pulse a few times, then set the speed to medium.
-
Step 2When the mixture is fairly smooth and the appliance is still running, slowly pour in a thin stream of oil through the top.
-
Step 3Taste and adjust seasoning before transferring the mixture to a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
-
Step 4When ready to serve, ladle into chilled serving bowls and garnish with red onions, chopped dill, and drizzle on some olive oil.
