Flutter Magazine Chilled Strawberry Balsamic Soup Recipe

Friday…we’re in love with botanical entertaining and this Chilled Strawberry Balsamic Soup is the tastiest (and prettiest) addition to your weekend rendezvous! The refreshing recipe is perfect for a picnic, a brunch, or a fabulous dinner party. Serve it as a darling amuse-bouche or adjust the portions to make it a true first course. Enjoy!

Strawberry Balsamic Soup
Yields: approx (8) 3 oz. portions

1 ½ cups Strawberries, stemmed
2 Large Brandywine Tomatoes (about 12 oz), peeled and coarsely chopped
1 Tbsp Blue Agave Syrup
3 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Sherry Vinegar
Pinch of Kosher Salt
Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Garnish
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Reduced Balsamic Vinegar
Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Nasturtium Leaves & Petals

Put the strawberries, tomatoes, agave, salt, pepper (to taste), oil, and vinegar in a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add a little more strawberry (if not sweet enough) and/or tomato (if not acidic enough), then blend again. Transfer the soup to a large bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for as long as possible, but serve the same day. Pour the soup into eight small, preferably chilled glasses. Drizzle with oil and vinegar and dust with a pinch of black pepper. Garnish each glass with a nasturtium leaf and petal and serve.

Reminiscing back to the summer of 2018 when @joyproctor and I traveled with an inspiring group of women to France for the Champagne & Castles  #heartsafluttertour. In the Loire Valley, we had the opportunity to meet up with @fleuropean for a flowering design session at our castle (yes, we stayed in a castle!). What a treat to be able to learn and be inspired by Emily's dreamy floral aesthetic.

Back home here in Los Angeles, California, I'm over-the-moon to be able to share a bit of the @fleuropean magic with you through @the_floral_pantry’s February Floristry Kit. Complete with absolutely everything you need to design at home (flowers, tools, vessels, tutorials), your heart will surely flutter from this dream floral design experience. 🌿

Pre-order is now available on The Floral Pantry website. Kits ship just in time for Valentine's Day! 💕
