Zucchini Garlic Soup

from www.thekitchn.com:
This soup is so creamy and silky - it tastes like it's full of cream. But it doesn't have a drop of dairy.

i modified the original recipe slightly by substituting olive oil instead of butter & fresh ginger instead of powdered ginger.Submitted by: CITYGIRL666

Using 3/4 tsp of salt (2300 mg for 1 tsp divide by 3/4 = 1725 mg) in only 6 servings would make the sodium count of this dish drastically higher than 3.8 mg. It should read 285.5 mg per serving.

Please recheck your calculations. - 11/9/09
