Chilled Cucumber and Watermelon Soup With Crabmeat

If  you have a special celebration upcoming, make sure you save this one. It is purely delightful and truly special. Read  on.

 

  • 2 cucumbers, peeled and seeded
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 cups watermelon, peeled and cubed
  • 2 slices cantaloupe, sliced thin and diced
  • 1/2 avocado, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup watermelon, diced and reserved
  • 1/2 cup crabmeat (from 8 crab legs or Costco container of crab meat)
  • 2 tsp. finely chopped fresh dill
  • 1 tsp. lime juice

To serve this soup, chill 4 soup bowls.
This is a very important step as it really does enhance the flavours of the soup.

Use a juicer and juice the cucumbers. Strain and put in a container and refrigerate. Wash the juicer and now put in the watermelon cubes and juice. Strain into a container and place in the refrigerator. Check these two after a while and remove any ‘floaties’ that may appear if missed when strained. Sprinkle the salt over the two waters and refrigerate.

To serve:

Add the avocado and cantaloupe into the diced watermelon and divide equally in the 4 bowls. In a bowl, mix together the waters (cucumber and watermelon), add the lime juice and taste. You may need to add more lime juice or perhaps a touch more salt. (Your call).

Now divide the crab meat and place in the center of the bowl. Carefully pour the mixed waters in. Top with the chopped dill.

Congratulations!
