Matthew Jennings's recipe Chilled Young Carrot Soup with Clotted Cream, Pistachios, and Mint, adpated by the James Beard Foundation
Chilled soup is a staple in our kitchen this time of year: it's easy to make, endlessly versatile, and an ideal showcase for our favorite seasonal ingredients. Paired with a loaf of crusty bread and a hunk of good cheese, any of these recipes would make a perfect summer supper.
Michael Lomonaco tames tart sorrel with sweet crab and Jerusalem artichokes in this cool, creamy soup.
When made with fresh-from-the-garden carrots and easy homemade clotted cream, this dish is a revelation.
Not your average tomato soup: a dollop of basil-flecked guacamole tops this version from Gavin Kaysen.
Serve this refreshing, sweet sipper as a palate cleanser or even as dessert.
