Strawberry Soup Recipe

Ingredients:

• 3 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced strawberries, sugar, and water. Stir to combine and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and let simmer for 10 minutes.
2. Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes. Using an immersion blender or regular blender, puree the soup until smooth.
3. Return the soup to the saucepan and add the heavy cream and lemon juice. Stir to combine and heat over medium heat until warmed through, about 3-5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Verdict:

This is a light and refreshing soup that makes a great appetizer or dessert. The sweetness of the strawberries combined with the tartness of the lemon juice creates a perfect balance of flavors. The heavy cream adds a creamy and luxurious texture to the soup.

Serving suggestions:

– Garnish with fresh mint leaves and sliced strawberries for a beautiful presentation.
– Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for a more decadent dessert.
– Pair with a crisp white wine or sparkling rosé for a perfect summertime meal.
