Soupruary 22nd: Chilled Blueberry

You can all this soup either Frost/Blueberry or Frozen River Soup; but neither of them won any Oscars...


Location:

Mikey B.'s, Fort Mitchell, Kentucky

Attendees:

Menu:

All I made was the soup, but there was an array of nommables ranging from lemon-rosemary cookies with mascarpone (Cookie Cristina Mascarpona) to baguette with melted brie (Milktoast).
Entertainment: The 81st Annual Academy Awards (I cried three times!)

The Soup:
Well, I suppose I had to do a chilled soup at some point, and with two (2!) chilly titles nominated for Oscars this year, it seemed to be the excuse I needed.


This was very sweet. Very sweet. It was tasty, but...it'd probably be better in a shot glass-sized serving than in a bowl.


Or maybe I'm just weird about cold soups.

Adapted from Cookie, July 2007

juice of one orange
1/2 c sugar
1 c water
1 c fruity white wine
2 c fresh blueberries
1 c plain yogurt

In a deep saucepan bring orange juice, sugar, water and wine to a boil, and boil for about one minute. Add blueberries and boil for another minute. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Puree the mixture, then strain through a fine sieve. Just before serving, stir in the plain yogurt until fully incorporated.
