Chilled Avocado and Zucchini Soup
Gourmet August 1993

1 medium zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1 California avocado
1 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup ice cubes plus additional to thin the soup if desired
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh chives

In a steamer set over boiling water steam the zucchini, covered, for
10 minutes, or until it is very tender.
In a blender purée the zucchini with the avocado, halved, peeled and chopped, the buttermilk, 3/4 cup ice cubes, lemon juice and cumin,

(Season to taste with salt and pepper.) Divide the soup between 2
