Great for winter chill! Zucchini soup is very tasty and this vegetable gives the soup an attractive green color. Zucchini or courgette is a summer squash and can be dark or light green. In a culinary context, zucchini is treated as a vegetable; it is usually cooked and presented as a savory dish or accompaniment. Botanically, however, zucchini is a fruit.

Our recipe keeps it as pure as possible, and this soup is pretty amazing, even chilled the next day. It’s a thin soup, but if you prefer a thicker, more substantial soup, add more zucchini and/or less stock or even cream.

This soup can be made ahead and refrigerated.
