Ice-Cooled Summer Soup With Shripm Skewer

On hot, hot summer days, when the heat is literally over, we all long for cooling off. Inwardly and outwardly. On these days, I have the constant question of what I could make delicious food, without long standing at the hot stove.

That’s why I was delighted to meet the challenge that ALDI SOUTH has placed in me as part of our collaboration. Namely to create a cold soup, which should provide us with cooling on hot summer days.

Immediately I am introduced to the motherland of cold soups, which, by the way, is one of our favorite holiday countries: Spain. There, the cold soup in the summer heat is not to imagine the diet. I even think the Spaniards invented the cold soup, or were they the Portuguese, the Italians or the Greeks? In any case, the ice-cold soup is a delicious, refreshing and not least very healthy meal in the heat. Not only for the southern Europeans .

For my summer soups recipe, it was important to me that all of my summer favorite foods come in, which I find particularly refreshing and which perfectly fit into an iced soup. Watermelon stood right up there with me because it gives the soup a slightly fruity touch. Watermelon is the ultimate refreshment for me in summer, especially when it comes out of the fridge. My family and I eat them by the kilo. It is so delicious, refreshing and always quench your thirst, just wonderful.

Followed by the cucumber, which I even used this summer for a refreshing lemonade. It is the perfect culinary companion for hot days. And then the tomato, mhhhh, the classic when the heat pulls over the land. It always works when the stove is cold and still needs a tasty meal on the table.

Thus, the experimental kitchen started with all these healthy vegetable treats for hot days. They became the main characters in my ice-cooled summer soup. The preparation is also exactly to my taste, everything whittle, puree – done!

As icing on the cake, I serve a delicious prawn skewer with my summer soup. It is turbo-fast even when it is very warm. It is fried only very briefly and harmonizes simply deliciously with the cold soup. You can serve the soup also great in glasses. The shape you can choose as you wish, it should fit only a tablespoon through the opening . I think in glasses, the cold soup is particularly good effect and decorated with a salt edge, they are the absolute eye-catcher.
