Avocado Is the Perfect Ingredient for a Silky Creamy Soup
Not everyone is a fan of cold soup, but if you are, you will probably appreciate the rich, creamy texture of most chilled summer soups. Next time you whip up a batch, try an avocado.
As Epicurious explains, the avocado blend is the perfect consistency for a creamy soup. They write:
Add an avocado to a blender the next time you make a serving of cold soup, and it will not only increase the nutritional value of your meal, but also make the soup silky and thicker. Mixed with yogurt and sprinkled with fresh tomato salsa, this uncooked soup is 100% refreshing and 100% ready to eat.
This is a great option for vegans. They say you will still get the same creamy texture with or without dairy. ( Here’s a recipe, for example, with avocado, cilantro and tomatoes). If you like chilled savory soups, give it a try. Epicurious offers a few more versatile avocado offerings, so head over to the full post at the link below.
