Soup Recipe

In case you're still interested in the yummy soup we had at our lunch, I'm finally getting the recipe posted.

Cool Raspberry Soup

1 bag (20 oz) frozen raspberries, thawed

1 1/4 cups water

1 cup cran-raspberry juice

1/2 cup sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

3 whole cloves

1 TBSP lemon juice

1 carton (8 oz.) raspberry-flavored yogurt

1/2 c. sour cream

In a blender, puree raspberries and water. Transfer to a large saucepan; add the cran-raspberry juice, sugar, cinnamon and cloves. Bring just to a boil over medium heat. Remove from the heat; strain and allow to cool. Whisk in lemon juice and yogurt. Refrigerate. To serve, pour into small bowls and top with a dollop of sour cream. Yield: 4-6 servings.

Grown-Up Fry Sauce

Here is the recipe for the Fry Sauce I brought today. It comes from Our Best Bites. Instead of Creole mustard I used plain stone ground mustard with a pinch of Creole seasoning.

1/4 c. mayonnaise

1/4 c. ketchup

1 1/2 Tbsp. capers, drained

1 1/2 tsp. minced garlic

1 1/2 tsp. minced red onion

1 tsp. fresh lime juice

2 tsp. Creole mustard (Zatarain's is widely available at most major grocery stores)

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

1/8 tsp. kosher salt

Combine ingredients in blender or the small bowl of a food processor. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
