A Cold Summer Soup Of Beets And Pimento Pepper
This is a wickedly-good concoction � a soup that�s perfect for summer! The colour is so beautiful � a deep, rich vermillion - and with a drizzle or dollop of dill-infused crème fraiche, it�s nearly too pretty to eat. Fortunately, the taste lives up to the stunning visual!!
Steps
To make soup: put all the soup ingredients in a blender.
Process for 45-seconds to 1 minute , or until you have a completely smooth puree.
Taste and adjust seasoning.
Empty into a food-safe container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to marry flavours.
To make crme fraiche drizzle: combine crme fraiche with finely-minced fresh dill.
Refrigerate until ready to use.
To serve: serve soup in pretty white bowls , if you have them , as the colour is so amazing.
Drizzle with the crme fraiche and top each with a fresh sprig of dill.
