Creamy Cucumber Soup With Yogurt
"Sometimes, a comforting and delicious bowl of soup is all you need. Soup recipes can be either be cold or hot. This cold recipe is sure to bring the springtime vibe to your dinner table. Adding a touch of a good heap of chili flakes can create a heat and add additional interest to this soup recipe. Adding some cumin to this recipe would be a nice addition as well. This is a riff on a Polish soup which is made from salted cucumbers and potatoes. We omit the potatoes to create a herbaceous and more refined soup."
