Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 3/4 cups (about 8 ounces) blanched, ground almonds
3 slices white bread, crusts removed, diced
10 cloves garlic, peeled
6 cups milk
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
36 white seedless grapes, halved, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the almonds, bread, garlic, milk and vinegar. Working in three batches, transfer about a third of the mixture to a blender and process until smooth. With the motor running, slowly pour in 1/4 cup of olive oil. Strain the soup through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl. Repeat process with the remaining mixture.
  • Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper and chill for several hours. Before serving, taste the soup; if it tastes too strongly of either garlic or vinegar, add a bit of water. Serve the soup garnished with grape halves.

Overall, I thought this soup was good, but not great. It was easy to make and the flavors were interesting, but it was a bit too rich for my taste.

This soup was a bit too thick for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would have preferred it with more broth.

I found this soup to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more garlic and maybe some other spices.

This soup was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would have preferred it with less almonds or maybe a different type of nut.

This soup was easy to make and very tasty. I used a food processor to puree the almonds and garlic, which made it extra smooth. I also added a bit of cayenne pepper for a little kick. Yum!

I was a bit skeptical about the grapes in this soup, but they actually worked really well. The sweetness of the grapes balanced out the savory flavors of the almonds and garlic. I'm glad I tried this recipe!
