Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized Zucchini
- 4 cups Vegetable or Chicken Broth
Instructions
Wash the zucchini thoroughly under running water and pat them dry.
Trim the ends of the zucchini and roughly chop them into 1-inch pieces.
In a large pot, add the chopped zucchini and the broth.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender.
Remove the pot from heat and let it cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, work in batches and puree the soup in a blender.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed (though this recipe assumes no added salt as a basic guideline).
Serve hot, garnished with optional toppings such as a drizzle of olive oil, fresh herbs, or a sprinkle of black pepper.
