There are hundreds of different types of soups made in all parts of the world according to the culture and traditions of a region. One such soup is the strawberry soup, which is not very common, but can be extremely delicious if made perfectly.
Ingredients
- Fresh strawberries - 4 cups
- Frozen whipped topping - 1 thawed container (12 ounce)
- Vanilla extract - ½ tsp.
- Ground nutmeg - ⅛ tsp.
- Ground cinnamon - ¼ tsp.
- White sugar - 1 cup
- Sour cream - ¼ cup
- Mint springs - 12 fresh
- Prepared pound cake - 12 oz.
Instructions
- You need to rinse the fresh strawberries under cool running water before you drain them and remove any excess water by softly patting the strawberries with paper towels.
- Use a sharp knife or a strawberry huller to remove the stems.
- At this stage, you may set aside about 10 or 12 whole strawberries for garnishing that will be done later.
- You can now grab a large bowl and combine strawberries, nutmeg, whipped topping, cinnamon, sugar and vanilla extract in it.
- On low speed, you should mix the ingredients in an electronic mixer for about five to seven minutes.
- You may stop when the sugar has properly dissolved and the mixture has become smooth.
- The next step is to add sour cream to the bowl and mix it for another minute on low speed.
- You can put the bowl in the refrigerator so that it gets chilled.
- You should now slice the pound cake into cubes before you put them under the broiler for three minutes.
- After three minutes, you can turn them over and brown the other sides of the cubes for three minutes.
- You may garnish the soup with toasted pound cake croutons, whole strawberries and sprigs of fresh mint.
- Make sure that the soup is served in chilled bowls.
