Simple indeed and as written I give it 4 stars. The flavor from the cucumber and zucchini came through nicely but I still felt it was lacking some herbs or seasonings. I ended up adding some dill a dash of cayenne and a dash of salt and this took it from a 4 to a 5.
Made this soup today and stuck to the recipe...until I tasted it. The flavor was very zucchini and I wanted to tone that taste down a little. Added some paprika oregano basil and a couple dollops of sour cream. Much better.
Made this today to use some fresh cuke and zuke from the farmer's market. Used some green onion I had too. Yes needs some herbs and seasoning; dill salt and pepper and cayenne like the previous reviewer. Also gave it a shot of Frank's Red Hot (hubby's fave!) Good soup!
Terrific simple recipe. I only had 1 zucchini and followed another reviewer's suggestion of adding 1T dill. Did not peel cucumber or zucchini. Used mandolin and it was very quick. Good hot or cold.
I did not make any changes. It was a light soup but it was just bland no flavor
I added salt celery salt cayenne pepper dill weed and greek yogurt as some other reviewers suggested and with these added it's a 5 out of 5 delicious! Also sliced cucumber in finished soup.
I used chicken and beef stock rather than vegetable stock. I tripled the recipe myself. It's delicious! I think it needs some sliced jalapenos tossed in after it is cooked.:)
Very easy to make and delicious I would say make sure you blend it thoroughly especially if the cucumbers/zucchini are unseeded. Also I just grate the vegetables to save time. Great with sour cream cheese most dairy.
This was a total waste of cucumbers, zucchini, and time. Bland, bland, bland. I couldn't think of anyway to save it
