CHILLED TOMATILLO SOUP
From a fantastic regional cookbook from the Junior League of North Harris County (Houston). It is called Texas Ties, and I have NEVER had a bad recipe from the book. This is good both hot or cold. As would be expected with tomatillos and lime juice, this soup is quite citrus-y. I like the leftover soup as a dip with raw jicama.

Steps:
- Combine the tomatillos with enough water to cover in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes, or until tender. Drain tomatillos.
- In a large food processor (or in batches in the blender, or using a stick blender), process the tomatillos, onion, poblanos, lime juice, cilantro, cumin, salt, sugar, and garlic until smooth.
- Combine the tomatillo mixture with the half and half and jicama in a bowl and mix well. Cover and refrigerate to allow flavors to meld (1 to 4 hours).
- Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish each with additional tomatillos, cilantro, and almonds.
- For a smoother soup, process the jicama as well.
- For a heated soup, you may find it neccessary to thin with chicken stock.
