Description

This vibrant Cold Tomatillo Soup offers a refreshing twist on traditional hot gazpacho-style dishes. Featuring the bright, citrusy flavor of fresh tomatillos balanced with the gentle heat of jalape&# 195;±os, it creates a complex and satisfying taste profile. The texture is smooth and silky, making it incredibly soothing to drink. It is an ideal make-ahead dish for summer gatherings or a light lunch on a scorching afternoon. Simple to blend and chill, this vegan-friendly soup highlights fresh, seasonal ingredients without heavy dairy or meat, delivering a crisp, clean finish that wakes up the palate.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. Add diced onion and seeded jalapeños, cooking until tender and translucent, about 10 minutes.
  3. Add quartered tomatillos and chicken stock to the pan.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
  5. Cover and simmer until the tomatillos are soft and tender, approximately 10 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and let the soup cool slightly before blending until smooth.
  7. Refrigerate the soup for at least 2 hours until thoroughly chilled.
  8. Taste and adjust salt before serving.
