Here’s a great chilled soup that is ready in a flash. Prepare the tortilla strips ahead of time and you have a great soup in ten minutes!
4 white corn tortillas
1-2 cups canola oil for frying, heated to 350 degrees
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (16-ounce) jars Fischer & Wieser Das Peach Haus® Peach Salsa, well chilled
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup minced cilantro
Place the tortillas in a stack. Using a sharp knife, cut the stack in half, then stack the cut halves together. Cut the tortillas into 1/4-inch wide strips. Fry the tortilla strips in heated canola oil until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on absorbent paper towels. Toss with salt to season. Pour the Fischer & Wieser Das Peach Haus® Salsa into blender and puree until smooth. To serve, pour 8 ounces (1 cup) of the pureed salsa into four shallow soup plates (clear glass looks great!). Place two tablespoons of the sour cream in the center of each serving. Scatter some of the tortilla strips over the sour cream. Garnish each bowl with 1 tablespoon of the minced cilantro, scattering it over the entire bowl. Serve at once and enjoy a refreshing cool breeze in a bowl. Serves 4
