Introduction

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.

Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    4 tablespoons olive oil
    1 onion, sliced
    8-9 large cloves of garlic, sliced thinly
    4 medium zucchini, about 1 1/2 pounds
    4 cups of vegetable broth
    1 teaspoon ginger
    Salt and pepper

Directions

makes 1.5 quarts

Cook garlic & onions in olive oil on medium-low heat until the onion is soft and translucent. Keep the heat low enough that the garlic doesn't brown; you want everything to sweat.

When the onions are soft, add sliced zucchini and cook until soft. Add the broth and bring to a simmer. Simmer at a low heat for about 45 minutes.

Let cool slightly, then blend with an immersion blender until creamy, or transfer to a standing blender to puree. Be very careful if you use the latter; only fill the blender half full with each batch, and hold the lid down tightly with a towel.

Taste and season with ginger, salt and pepper. Like most soups, this is significantly better after a night in the refrigerator to let the flavors meld.

    I was sure there was a way to make a tasty zucchini soup. Will probably use less garlic next time. - 2/7/12

    My family loved this. I could see using chicken bone broth vs. vegetable broth for a change. - 2/2/20
