Sweet red fruit and fragrant purple flowers are a pair made in heaven in this chilled strawberry lavender soup!
Strawberries are one of those fruits that you can get all year long in most parts of the country, but taste best during the early summer. Sweet, succulent, and full of flavor, these red gems are used in everything from fruit salads to smoothies. While these are all good ways to use them up, sometimes we want a recipe that lets the sweet berries shine in a new way.
That’s where this chilled strawberry soup comes in. Accented with lavender and shallots, it’s a savory soup with a sweet twist. The dish is simple to prepare and sure to impress dinner guests.
