This is another recipe gleaned from the wonderful publication published by the Madison Area Community Supported Agriculture Coalition, titled “From Asparagus to Zucchini: A Guide to Cooking Farm-Fresh Seasonal Produce” -Third edition, Jones Books, 2004. It was inspired by a recipe from Deborah Madison’s Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone. It’s a refreshing, cooling chilled soup for a hot summer evening.
