Cold zucchini soup with olives and basil

Soupe froide de courgettes

Avec cette (insupportable) chaleur qu’il fait par chez nous, les menus du moment sont exclusivement composés de choses froides comme les salades. Bon, comme ce n’est pas une soupe cru, il a bien fallu faire chauffer la cocotte mais c’est pour la bonne cause car le résultat est vraiment à la hauteur de mes espérances.

Vous pouvez simplement accompagner cette soupe d’une bonne tartine de votre chèvre préféré et là c’est juste le bonheur !

Alors elle est pas belle la vie ?!

    A true delight ! How gray and cold it was outside today, I preferred to eat it hot… certainly, we lose the ultra-fresh side, but it was still ultra-delicious and comforting !
