Zucchini Flower Soup

Ingredients:
Zucchini Flowers 200g
Chopped Onion 1 teaspoon
Garlic Clove 1/2
A few leafs of Epazote
1/4 cup of Cream
1 teaspoon of Sour Cream
1/2 teaspoon of oil
1/2 teaspoon of cornstarch
1/2 cup of chicken stock

Directions:

Heat the oil in a in a pot, saute the onion & garlic. Once you start smelling the garlic add the epazote leafs and zucchini flowers. Let it cook for approx 15 mins with the lid on in medium heat, you don't want to burn the flowers. In a food processor, process the zucchini flower mix and then put it back on the pot and add the chicken stock and cream and mix until it is well incorporated. Keep it in low heat. To serve put a little bit of the sour cream, some zucchini flowers and queso fresco.

  4. This is a gorgeous soup and the pictures are bright and crisp. I like the addition of epazote - was disappointed when someone trampled it at my community garden. I adore flor de calabaza in all it's manifestations. I think I'll use them to garnish my creamy zucchini and corn soup - it makes for a very elegant presentation.
