MEDITERRANEAN SUMMER BREEZE COLD YOGURT SOUP

You and your friend are sitting at a quaint outdoor café on the Greek Island of Mykonos. The sun is setting and the feel of the summer breeze on your sun tanned skin is so soothing. You have just finished eating a tasty shrimp appetizer, it was mouth watering but a touch on the spicy side. A cold creamy yogurt soup would just hit the spot. Enjoy!

  • .
  • Notes: This soup is best when using whole creamy milk yogurt which can be found in Greek and Middle Eastern grocery stores; or use your own home make yogurt. You can also serve INDIVIDUAL CUPS instead of bowls of this soup. Simply, reduce the amount of ingredients in each cup. Finally, you can add or substitute some of the vegetables. For example, cut up strawberries (add a pinch of sugar in individual bowls), tomatoes or chopped up hard boiled eggs (Arabic style).

CHILLED CUCUMBER YOGURT SOUP

This recipe is slightly adapted from Celebrity Cruise Line's "Excite the Senses - A Culinary Journey with Celebrity Cruises" cookbook. I am a travel agent, and also write recipe reviews from cruise line's cookbooks on my company blog. I knew after tasting this one that I'd be doing it again and again! Not only is it healthy, but it also fulfilled my three E's of cooking: easy, elegant and economical. "Cook" time is minimum chilling time. I only use Greek yogurt, but feel free to use whatever you'd like.

OKROSHKA (CHILLED YOGURT SOUP)

This is an Uzbek version of a Russian soup. In Russia, the soup is made with Kvass (a national drink made with brewer's yeast and rye bread). In Uzbekistan, the soup is made with fermented mare's (horses) milk. I prefer to use a thinned plain yogurt. My husband, who is not adventurous, loves this soup in the summer and we have it often. The original recipe came from "Please to the Table - The Russian Cookbook" by Anya von Bremzen and John Welchman. I have modified it quite a bit so think I can almost, not quite, call it my own recipe. Prep time does not include chilling time.

Madzoon Ov Kufteh (Meatball Yogurt Soup) image

Steps:

  • Mix together salt, beef, bulgar, onion, red pepper, black pepper, one egg. Use food processor if necessary to blend. Dip hands in cold roll into balls about a size of a quarter.
  • For broth crack egg in yogurt and mix well with mint. Heat up 2 cans broth along with 2 cups water, add yogurt mix and keep stirring so soup will not curdle. Add butter and stir until melted.
  • Once broth is nearly boiling add meatballs and heat for ten minutes.
  • Note: If you want a richer soup, add a pea size pat of butter in the middle of each meatball. It helps if they are cut up and then frozen when rolling the meatball.
