YOGURT AND CUCUMBER SOUP
All the fresh herbs make this cold soup marvelously refreshing. Key ingredient is raisins. Absolutely perfect if you have an herb garden; otherwise, for those of us who don't, a little expensive to prepare (unless you have use for all those extra fresh herbs) but great on the tastebuds and wonderfully aromatic nevertheless. Substitute dried for fresh if fresh herbs unavailable. I prepared this for a 3-day July 4th weekend. Cut out of an article in the NY Times, adapted from Najmieh Batmanglij, a Thai chef living in the U.S., but she described this as a Persian soup. Cooking time is chilling time.

Steps:
- Peel the cucumber, and cut into chunks. Trim the scallion of coarse outer leaves, keeping the tender green; chop it and the white part into rough pieces. Put the cucumber and scallion along with the chicken broth and yogurt in a food processor or a blender, and spin until well blended. Season with salt and pepper and a grating of fresh ginger. Pour into a chilled soup bowl, and sprinkle the herbs on top.
- Variation
- Use fish stock instead of chicken broth, and add about 1/3 cup cooked salmon broken into flakes. Decrease the amount of yogurt to 2 teaspoons, and purée everything together in a blender or a food processor.
SPICY CUCUMBER SOUP WITH YOGURT BY SY
This is a wonderful Cold Yogurt Soup for a hot summers day! Try chopping up the cucumbers very fine or leave them on the chunky side! It you chop up the cucumbers real fine and add more water, you then have a good "Yogurt Drink" instead of a soup! Also, other variations for this Cold Yogurt Soup are using chicken stock, buttermilk, sour cream, touch of tabasco... Enjoy!
