threemeninaboatI was dubious last summer when I read about Cream of Zucchini soup in The Silver Spoon. It sounds icky. But it's The Silver Spoon! They can't be wrong. They aren't, it's VERY delicious.
I have heard that some people actually throw out their arm-sized zucchini just because they are no longer tender. Silly and wasteful. I had lots of giant zucchini.
10 lbs zucchini
1 stick of butter
1 onion
garlic cloves
stock
milk
s&P
Melt butter in the soup pot. Add diced onion. Garlic. Diced zucchini. Cook until tender, stirring every so often. Stock. Cook down into mush. S&P.
Blend it with the immersion blender.
If you are going to freeze your 2 gallons of soup, stop here. If not, add milk.
I froze mine in quart and pint jars. I filled the pint jars halfway so I can add the milk later.
Dude, it's soup. If you want don't 2 gallons, just use like 2 lbs of zukes.
