Tomatillo soup is the perfect antidote to prickly summer heat. Sharp and citrusy, yet smooth and refreshing, it seems especially good after a long day of work in the garden.

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium-size onion, coarsely chopped
1 pound tomatillos, husked, rinsed, and quartered
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
3 cups Chicken Stock to Make 1 1/2 Quarts, or low-sodium canned
1 teaspoon ground cumin, plus a pinch for garnish
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped cilantro, plus 4 sprigs for garnish
1 cup buttermilk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 10 minutes. Reduce the heat if the onion begins to brown.
  • Add the tomatillos, garlic, and jalapeno and cook for 5 minutes. Raise the heat to medium-high, add the chicken stock, cumin, and cilantro, and cook 10 minutes more. Remove from the heat and cool.
  • Pour the mixture into the bowl of a food processer and puree until smooth. Add the buttermilk, salt, and pepper and pulse to combine. Transfer to a bowl and chill in the refrigerator.
  • Ladle the soup among 4 bowls and garnish each with a cilantro sprig and the cumin.

I would make this soup again, but I would make a few changes. I would use less lime juice and more seasoning.

Overall, I thought this soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out too thick. I had to add more buttermilk to thin it out.

This soup is a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less lime juice.

I'm not a huge fan of tomatillos, but I really enjoyed this soup. The buttermilk and lime mellow out the tartness of the tomatillos.

I was a bit skeptical about this soup at first, but I'm so glad I tried it! The flavors are complex and delicious. I especially love the smokiness from the roasted tomatillos.

I've made this soup twice now and it's been a hit both times! It's so easy to make and the flavors are amazing. I love that it's a cold soup, so it's perfect for a hot summer day.

This chilled buttermilk tomatillo soup was a refreshing and flavorful summer dish! The combination of the tangy tomatillos, creamy buttermilk, and zesty lime was perfect. I also loved the added crunch from the cucumber and red onion.
