About This Recipe
This chilled soup uses our Savoury Starter and marries it with ingredients on the yellow spectrum to produce our amber soup.
Inclusions include frozen sweet corn, honeydew melon and yellow grapefruit. Corn in a fine source of B vitamins, vital for turning food into energy, as well as vitamin C and minerals such as magnesium.
Honeydew melon is also a good source of vitamin C and potassium, while grapefruit is also high in vitamin C and pectins, a plant substance that can help with cholesterol levels.
Spices we’re adding in include anti-inflammatory turmeric and we are firing that up with some black pepper, remember the black pepper increases those anti-inflammatory benefits. Not a fan of turmeric? Substitute it for saffron.

Method
In small batches add the ingredients to a high-sheer liquidiser and process into a super-smooth soup base. If it feels too thick, add a splash of mineral water
Strain this through a sieve, adding anything that doesn’t make it through back into the main batch
Repeat the process until all is smooth and there is just a little discardable residue in the sieve
Chill in the fridge and remove for 30-45 minutes before serving
