Strawberry Soup

 Moosewood Restaurant Daily Special, p. 159

4 cups stemmed and quartered fresh or frozen strawberries

¼ cup orange juice

¼ cup Cointreau or other orange-flavored liqueur

1 cup buttermilk

¼ cup sugar, or to taste



Off to an excellent start!

Cointreau is expensive. This stuff is slightly less expensive and still delicious.

In a blender or food processor, combine the strawberries, orange juice, Cointreau, and buttermilk and puree until smooth. 

Getting thick!


Add sugar to taste.

Serve at once or refrigerate.

This paired surprisingly well with cilantro lime Rice-a-Roni.


My Rating: 5/5 "LOVED THIS. (And so did my partner!) It's wonderfully refreshing - there's no sour accent from the buttermilk at all. The liqueur adds great complexity to the flavor. You will never regret making this."
