- 45 ml sherry vinegar
- 1 tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp fresh black pepper
- ¼ tsp cumin powder
- 2 slices of white bread
Instructions:
- Remove the crusts of the white bread and soak it in water then squeeze all of the liquid.
- Blend along with watermelon, tomatoes, red pepper, onion, garlic, mint, olive oil, and sherry vinegar. Make sure that the liquid is completely smooth.

Mango Coconut Soup

Ingredients:

- 1 ½ tsp lime juice
- 1 tsp lime zest
- 2 tsp honey
- ½ minced green chili (adjust to taste)

- ½ tsp salt
Instructions:
- Slice and remove the pit from the mangoes. You can freeze them too if you want the soup super chilled.

- Pour into serving bowls and garnish with some mint leaves.
Peach Soup with Goat’s Cheese

Ingredients:
- 710 gm sliced and peeled peaches
- 60 gm sliced cucumbers
- 60 gm diced and de-seeded yellow bell pepper

- 2 tbsp honey
- 3 tbsp goat’s cheese
- 60 ml white balsamic vinegar
- 60 ml extra virgin olive oil
- Salt
- 1-2 garlic cloves
- 2 slices of white bread (for croutons)

- Blend in a food processor along with some water and goat’s cheese until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Cut the bread into cubes and either deep fry or pan fry the croutons. Drain on a paper towel.
- Chill the soup before serving it garnished with crumbled goat’s cheese and croutons.
Hungarian Blueberry Soup
Ingredients:
- 710 gm blueberries
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 cinnamon stick
Instructions:
- Put the blueberries in a saucepan with honey, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Keep the pan on medium heat so that the blueberries break down.
- Once the berry stew is cool, you can strain it through a fine mesh sieve. However, if you like some texture, you can just keep the stew as is.
- Create a cornstarch slurry, and add it to the berry stew. Place the saucepan back on the stove and let it slightly thicken.
- Then remove from heat and add lemon zest.
- You can serve it warm, but it will taste amazingly delicious when chilled during the summer. You can also garnish it with a dollop of yogurt too.
