Steps:
- Combine the cucumber and tomatoes in a blender, reserving 1/4 cup of each for garnish. Add the bell pepper, onion, vinegar, 1 teaspoon each dill and parsley, 1 clove garlic and the sugar; puree until smooth. Pass through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl, pressing with the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Season with 1 teaspoon salt. Refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the croutons: Heat the remaining clove garlic with the olive oil in a skillet over low heat. Add the bread cubes and the remaining 3 teaspoons each dill and parsley. Cook, stirring, until golden and crunchy, 10 to 15 minutes. Discard the garlic.
- Pour the soup into chilled bowls. Dice the reserved cucumber and tomatoes; sprinkle into the soup. Garnish with the croutons.

Steps:
- Make the soup: Put the English cucumber slices in a blender and add 1/4 cup cold water. Blend on low speed until smooth (you don't want to whip too much air into the soup). You may have to stop the blender to push the cucumbers down toward the blade. Season with salt, pepper and a touch of honey, if a little sweetness is needed. Transfer to a small bowl, then set it in a larger bowl filled with ice water to chill, about 3 hours.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce: Combine the chile pepper, honey, paprika and cumin in a small bowl and mash well with the back of a spoon so the ingredients meld. (If you own a mortar and pestle, this is a great chance to pull it out.) Stir in the yogurt and vinegar. Season with salt.
- Just before serving, drizzle the Kirby cucumber spears with the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Give the soup a final stir and pour into small glasses. Drizzle the yogurt sauce on top, garnish with the cucumber spears and serve immediately.

COLD CREAM OF CUCUMBER SOUP
This is a recipe by Beth Elon, who has a column every other week in our local paper. In our house it's just not Friday night dinner unless there's soup, but with the weather being so hot lately, I haven't been able to even bear the thought of sitting down to a hot steaming bowl of chicken soup, let alone cooking it on Friday. I tried this out the other night and it was so refreshing, I think we'll have this more often than just Friday nights during the summer! Prep time includes chilling (who wants lukewarm cuke soup?).

CHILLED CUCUMBER SOUP WITH AVOCADO TOAST
A chilled cucumber soup, whirled together in the blender to serve as an instant dinner, is one of the quiet rewards of midsummer. The trick to making it hearty enough is to not stint on the seasonings, especially when something as mild as cucumber is the main ingredient. Garlic, plenty of herbs, jalapeño and anchovy add plenty of flavor, while buttermilk contributes a creamy, light texture. You could serve this with nothing more than some crusty or toasted bread on the side and be satisfied, but a topping of soft avocado dressed with a little lemon juice and feta cheese fills out the meal nicely. And the muted green colors of avocado toast and cucumber soup look as cooling as they taste.

SOUR CREAM CUCUMBERS
We have a tradition at our house to serve this creamy cucumber salad with the other Hungarian specialties my mom learned to make from the women at church. It's especially good during the summer when the cucumbers are freshly picked from the garden. -Pamela Eaton, Monclova, Ohio

Steps:
- Line a sieve with cheesecloth (muslin) and place over a large bowl.
- Spoon the yogurt into the sieve and let drain in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
- Discard the captured liquid and place the yogurt in the bowl.
- Add the grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, mint, chopped dill and milk.
- Mix well.
- Stir in the vinegar or lemon juice.
- Cover and chill for 1 hour.
- Before serving, season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Ladle the soup into chilled individual bowls and garnish each serving with a cucumber slice and a dill sprig.
- Serve well chilled.
- NOTES: Cucumbers are native to Asia, where they have been eaten for thousands of years.
- They contain a great deal of water, which makes them particularly refreshing in the hot summer months.
- When choosing cucumbers, avoid the waxed variety sold in grocery stores year-round, and instead seek out the long, thin-skinned English or hothouse variety.
- It has a superior flavor, less water and far fewer seeds.
- Three lemon cucumbers can be substituted for the single English (hothouse) cucumber, if you like.

CHILLED CREAM OF CUCUMBER SOUP
I have to be honest here. I really dislike cucumbers and dill and I have never tried this soup BUT I have made it for a summer cook out on the very high praise of the lady who gave it to me. It was well liked by my husband and the couple we had invited to dinner that night. I'm passing it along so that cuke fans might enjoy it. As written this is made for 2 but I doubled it it seemed to be fine. Cook time is chill time.
