In the hot season I want coolness, this desire extends including food. Therefore, the question of which soup is better to cook in the summer becomes more than relevant, because you still need to satisfy hunger, but you do not really want to do this with the help of fatty broths.
Pick your recipe
The best way out of this situation would be cold soups, which will not only satisfy your hunger, but also help to cool. Their recipes are present in many national cuisines, so the choice can be quite diverse.
Kvass soups
The composition of the ingredients of such soups largely depends on personal taste preferences. The traditional basis of soup, called okroshka, is vegetables and herbs. At the same time, it can be either fully vegetarian, when it is prepared from finely chopped boiled potatoes, radishes, cucumbers and herbs, and with the addition of animal products. It can be either boiled eggs or meat, or sausage, and in some recipes you can even see canned fish as part of okroshka, although the appearance of such a dish turns out to be no less peculiar than its taste. Kvass is used in both white and sweet red.
If desired, or intolerance to kvass, it can be replaced with not too fat kefir, yogurt and even cucumber or cabbage brine.
Sweet cold soups
Such summer soup recipes are especially good for families with children, as the latter are especially appreciated. This is understandable: to a greater extent, these soups are similar to desserts and radically differ in taste and composition from what is usually fed for lunch. Recipes for sweet soups can be developed independently, you just need to pick up fruits that combine to taste and pour them with milk or not too fat yogurt. If you want to get a more satisfying dish, then as an additive to the fruit, you can use separately boiled not very large pasta or noodles or white crackers.
In addition to sugar, a variety of sweet syrups can also be added to soups based on milk or yogurt to help change taste.
