TIPS:
- Seek out the freshest, most flavorful produce at your farmers market or other source.
- When pureeing hot soups in a blender, avoid splatters by replacing the lid with a folded kitchen towel held gently in place.
- Choose a soup thickener based on your dietary goals and what's in your refrigerator. Options include Greek Yogurt, skim or soy milk, buttermilk, half and half, heavy cream, even leftover cooked rice.
- Puree and freeze fruits at their peak to use all year in soups and other dishes.
- Add vodka or gin to a strawberry or other fruit based soup to create a refreshing summer cocktail.
