Ingredients needed 4 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- To remove fine particles or stubborn residues on the grape surface, soak the grapes in flour water for about 10 minutes before rinsing.
- For a natural fruit flavor in the cold soup, use small, seedless 'Delaware grapes'—they are easy to eat and perfectly complement the dish.
- Raw onions can be sharp; if you're sensitive to heat, soak the sliced onion in cold water for 5 minutes to reduce its pungency before adding.
- After cooking, ice melts and dilutes the soup’s seasoning, so prepare the base slightly saltier than usual to maintain balance.
Recommended for
- Those seeking a refreshing, tangy boost to revive their appetite during sweltering summer heat.
- People wanting to go beyond basic cucumber cold soup and try a unique, visually and taste-pleasing version with sweet fruit.
- Individuals who want to enjoy nutritious, metabolism-friendly lettuce and grapes in a light, fresh way every day.
