Mexican Cold Avocado Buttermilk Soup Recipes

MEXICAN COLD AVOCADO & BUTTERMILK SOUP

Steps:

• Place the onions in a blender or processor and add 1 cup of the puree as fine as possible.
• Peel and chunk in 2 1/2 of the avocados, reserving the remaining half for garnish.
• Puree again, adding broth as necessary.
• Transfer the soup to a large bowl.
• Add any remaining broth the buttermilk to the blender and whirl briefly to pick as much avocado as possible.
• Add to the soup, along with the extract and sugar, if desired.
• Both of these rather surprising ingredients enhance avocado when used in tiny amounts.
• Stir well, taste and adjust the salt.
• The soup may be made to this in advance and refrigerated several hours, but for best flavor allow it to warm up a bit before serving.
• It should be cold but not icy.
• Peel the remaining half avocado cut into very thin slices.
• Divide soup-among six serving bowls and top with the sliced avocado, and coriander.
• Serve accompanied by the tortilla chips.
