Cream of Zucchini

“Summer courgettes from Puglia, with a hint of lemon.”

Courgettes from Puglia picked small, when they are at their sweetest, and a touch of lemon: a delicate, fragrant cream, ready in a jar.

Courgettes from Puglia With lemon 180 g jar

As summer approaches, farmers in Puglia get busy with the vegetables of the season: aubergines, peppers, tomatoes and, of course, courgettes. Bright green zucchini, picked while still small and therefore wonderfully sweet: these are the ones Apulian farmers send us every year for this cream.

More than a soup, it is a zucchini cream, delicate and fragrant. A hint of lemon gives just the right counterpoint to the sweetness of the courgettes. The whole family enjoys it, even those who usually leave their vegetables on the plate.

The names

Velouté, cream, courgette soup

Zucchini velouté is loved for its creaminess: a smooth, even texture, a delicate flavour and a bright colour. It also goes by courgette cream, zucchini purée or courgette soup; recipes change from home to home, but the star is always the courgette.

Its simplicity makes it one of the most versatile preparations in the kitchen: it works as a starter, as a sauce for a first course or as a side, and it is a precious resource for experienced cooks and beginners alike.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you want to know

Is it a soup or a cream?

More a cream than a soup: it is ready to dress pasta, to spread on a crostino or to serve alongside meat and fish.

Where do the courgettes come from?

From Puglia: they are courgettes that Apulian farmers send us every year, picked while still small and sweet.

What is the difference from courgette purée?

They are similar: a courgette purée is usually a little thicker than a velouté.

How do you make zucchini soup at home?

Diced courgettes cooked with olive oil, onion and vegetable stock, then blended; cream or fresh cheese if you like it creamier. Homemade courgette soup can be served hot or cold, depending on the season. The steps are above.
