An ultra-fast cold soup. Perfect for warm weather. (Found in my local paper.) Ingredients:
2 c. chopped ripe avocado (3 or 4 small avocados) |
3 c. milk, preferably whole |
kosher salt to taste |
cayenne pepper to taste |
2 tbls. freshly squeezed lime juice, or to taste |
a handful or more of small cooked shrimp |
chopped fresh cilantro or parsley leaves |
Directions:
1. Put chopped avocado in a blender or food processor. 2. Add half the milk, a large pinch of salt and a small pinch of cayenne; process to a puree. 3. Add remaining milk and puree. 4. Chill for up to six hours if you have the time. (Press a piece of plastic wrap to surface of soup so it does not discolor.) 5. Be sure and chill soup bowls in freezer before serving. 6. Add lime juice, taste, and adjust seasoning, if necessary. 7. Garnish with shrimp and parsley or cilantro and serve. |
