Zucchini and Buttermilk Soup
This version of okroshka, a Russian chilled soup, is garnished with chopped vegetables, eggs, pickles, and fish roe. The tangy buttermilk in this recipe highlights zucchini’s mild sweetness and light vegetal flavor. Look for pickled pattypan squash at Middle Eastern groceries; if you can’t find it, substitute diced dill pickles.
