SIMPLE CUCUMBER SOUP
The most simple yet one of the best soups I had so far. A simplified version of my mum's cucumber soup. No need for salt, pepper, or seasonings, just a good vegetable broth. I like to have it with a good slice of toasted bread and some good cheese.

COOL AS A CUCUMBER SOUP
This chilled soup makes a wonderful appetizer or side on a hot summer day. Bright bursts of dill provide pleasant contrasts to the milder flavor of cucumber.-Deirdre Cox, Kansas City, Missouri

ICED CUCUMBER SOUP
We're in the midst of a heat wave right now which inspired me to post this recipe. It's from The Colour Book of Cooking for Two. The sweetness of the sultanas complement this refreshing, garlic flavoured soup. I have successfully increased the servings for this soup so that I could include it as part of a buffet lunch. I kept it cold by placing the soup tureen (actually a large casserole dish) into a larger container filled with ice.

CUCUMBER SOUP
The refreshing cucumber soup is served cold, so it will go down well on a summer's day. Ladle it into bowls for a smaller gathering, or pour into small cups for an amuse-bouche.

Steps:
- Finely chop a third of one of the cucumbers and set aside for when you're ready to serve later. Roughly chop the remaining cucumbers and tip into a blender or food processor along with the yogurt and the lime juice from one lime. Add the tarragon, most of the mint leaves and most of the chives. Blitz until the mixture is smooth. Taste the soup and add some or all of the lime juice from the second lime if you want more acidity.
- Pour the soup into bowls or small cups, scatter over the finely chopped cucumber, remaining mint leaves and the rest of the chives. Drizzle with a little rapeseed oil just before serving.
