Zucchini soup - recipes for cooking lean and meat dishes with photos.
It is believed that soup is usually the first course. A liquid dish in which, along with various ingredients, at least half is liquid. It is often difficult to say which soup exactly, since it is very problematic to isolate the main component. This applies mainly to multicomponent soups. It is customary in the name of soups to reflect the main taste - meat soup with rice, or vegetable soup with shrimp. However, there are many soups that are simple in composition, but not always easy to prepare.
The basis of most soups is broth. Of course, there are a lot of milk-based soups, various liquids (for example, kvass). But soups on the broth, or rather, on the broth, are much more common. In French, the word broth shares a common root with the verb for "boil". Simply put, broth is a decoction obtained by boiling or boiling certain foods. Vegetable, meat, fish broths are an excellent base for soup.
Moreover, in many world cuisines, broths act as independent liquid dishes. It is hardly possible to speak about the high nutritional value of the broth, in view of the low content of nutrients in it. But broths are often used to maintain strength in case of weakness or illness, since broths are easily digested. At its core - a broth or fish broth, with the addition of spices and herbs. Vegetable decoctions - most often made with roots: carrots, celery, onions, sometimes parsnips, parsley root and others. I read somewhere that there is even a seaweed broth.
When I was little, I was fond of looking at pictures in an old cookbook. For some reason, I remember the pictures where ruddy children eat soups with pleasure. Not ordinary soups in which you can find carrots, potatoes or a piece of meat. And soups that are more like semolina. Back then, I discovered cream soups, pureed soups - homogeneous and very tasty.
It is always preferable to cook soups with broths
Often the cooking time of the main components of the soup is much less. Than the cooking time of the base - broth. Therefore, it is more convenient to initially prepare a decoction, and then cook soup based on it.
Now periodically we prepare similar first courses at home. And the most delicious we have is zucchini soup. Zucchini, a close relative of the pumpkin, grows well and does not require much care. Moreover, the fruits of zucchini can be of all kinds of colors. Often you can hear the name - zucchini. In many European languages, the name of the zucchini is pronounced as zucchini, it is customary to consider zucchini - zucchini with a green fruit. But the essence of this does not change - the zucchini remains a zucchini, even in zucchini caviar or in. An amazing feature of zucchini is an extremely low calorie content with a very high content of nutrients.
Ingredients (2 servings)
- Young zucchini (zucchini) 2-3 pcs
- Onion 1 pc
- Carrot 1 pc
- Garlic 2-3 cloves
- Cream 3 tbsp. l.

Zucchini soup with spices and cream
- For soup, young zucchini are needed, in which seeds have not formed. Ripe or almost ripe seeds are not crushed and will be completely superfluous in the soup. Peel the zucchini and, if the seeds seem ripe, remove them. Cut the zucchini into several pieces - large enough.
Zucchini and vegetables for broth
- Peel and chop the carrots as well. Peel the onion, but leave whole. Peel the garlic. Put all the vegetables in a saucepan, add 1 tsp. sugar and 2-3 bay leaves. Add 1 liter of water. Bring to a boil and cook over low heat under a lid for 20 minutes at a low boil. Discard bay leaves after 5 minutes.
Put all the vegetables in a saucepan, add water and spices
- Spoon out the boiled zucchini and garlic cloves. Put them in a blender. Grind everything to a puree. Do not pour out the decoction. And use to dilute the soup to the desired thickness.
Pour the zucchini puree into a saucepan, salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 tsp. natural butter
- Pour the zucchini puree into a saucepan, salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 tsp. natural butter and 3 tbsp. medium fat cream. Stir gently and put on fire. Depending on the desired density, the soup must be diluted with the remaining vegetable broth - to taste.
Depending on the desired thickness of the soup, it is necessary to dilute it with the remaining vegetable broth - to taste.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes. The boil should be weak. Remove the finished soup from the heat. Cover with a lid and let stand 10 minutes.
- Pour into bowls or bowls. Usually soups are sprinkled with herbs at the end. You can sprinkle with chopped parsley or a pinch of dried green onions. I highly recommend adding a little ground black pepper to the zucchini soup. If the soup is intended for children, no additives should be made.
Zucchini soup is distinguished by its ease of preparation. But this soup is not only very simple, but also very useful. After all, zucchini contains a huge amount of vitamins.
Zucchini soup contains a minimum amount of calories. Therefore, people who are on a diet can also use it.
Some may not like the lack of richness of this dish. In this case, you can add minced meat or meatballs.

You can prepare soup-puree from zucchini and potatoes at any time of the year, but you need to take care of the preparations for soups in advance. Zucchini hold up well to freezing, so they can be diced, frozen, and stored in the freezer until spring. And if the cottage pleased you with a good harvest of zucchini, then take the largest ones to the balcony or keep them in a cool place. Large zucchini are stored fresh until winter.
- medium-sized zucchini - 1 pc;
- potatoes - 3-4 pcs;
- carrots - 2 pcs;
- onion - 1 pc;
- water or vegetable broth - 1.5 liters;
- garlic - 2 large cloves;
- vegetable oil - 3 tbsp. l;
- salt - add to taste;
- coarsely ground black pepper - 2 pinches per serving;
- any greens - for serving soup.
We cut the vegetables until the water or vegetable broth boils. If the soup is not cooked in fasting, then you can cook it in chicken broth. We peel the zucchini, cut it into circles and check if there are any hard seeds inside. Cut into small cubes.
We cut carrots into small cubes or three on a coarse grater. Of course, grating is faster than chopping, but when frying, grated carrots will pick up more oil, so saving time will turn you into extra calories.
We cut the potatoes into small cubes or thin strips.
Finely chop the onion and garlic cloves. Garlic, by the way, can be added without roasting at the end of cooking to a pan with chopped vegetables or to plates.
The water began to boil intensively, it's time to load the potatoes into the pan. We wait until the water begins to boil again, adjust the fire so that the boil is not very violent, and begin to sauté the vegetables for the soup.
Heat the onion and garlic in oil. We do not fry, we will not fry. Add carrots, stir-fry vegetables for 2-3 minutes.
Pour the zucchini into the pan, mix the contents of the pan and continue to simmer over low heat for another five minutes.
The potatoes are already cooked, you can load the stewed vegetables into the pan and cook them until fully cooked.
Cook the soup for about 10-15 minutes on a very quiet fire. The slower the fire, the better and more evenly everything warms up and stews, vegetables gradually give off their taste, saturated with different aromas.
Turn off the heat when the vegetables are completely soft. Let cool slightly, transfer with a slotted spoon to a blender bowl and grind into a puree. If the walls of the pan are high, then you can drain some of the broth and chop the vegetables without removing them from the pan. Then warm up, add the broth and dilute to the desired thickness of the soup. Salt the soup, wait until it starts to boil and turn it off.
It is not necessary to infuse the puree soup; after cooking, it is immediately poured into plates and served at the table. You can add crackers, croutons, toast bread, dried in the oven, and season the soup itself with coarsely ground black pepper and fresh herbs. Enjoy your meal!
