Ingredients:
Instructions:
- If your almonds are not already blanched, bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the almonds and let them boil for about 1-2 minutes. Drain the almonds and rinse them with cold water to cool them down. Gently squeeze each almond to remove the skins.
- Place the blanched almonds in a bowl and cover them with water. Let them soak for at least 1-2 hours or overnight if possible. This will make them softer and easier to blend.
- Tear the rye bread into small pieces and set aside.
- In a small skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and slightly golden. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a blender, combine the soaked almonds (drain them if they've been soaking in water), sautéed garlic with olive oil, salt, torn rye bread, and 1.75 cups of fresh water.
- Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, you can add extra water a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the blended mixture into a large bowl or container. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld and to chill the soup.
- While the soup is chilling, wash the grapes thoroughly. Cut each grape in half and remove any seeds. Set aside.
- Before serving, give the soup a good stir. Ladle the chilled almond soup into bowls.
- Drizzle each bowl of soup with a little bit of the remaining olive oil for a finishing touch.
- Scatter the halved grapes over the soup, distributing them evenly across the bowls.
- Serve immediately with extra rye bread on the side if desired.
Tips:
- Soak the almonds overnight for a smoother texture.
- Use fresh, high-quality grapes for the best flavor.
- Toast the rye bread slices for added crunch and depth of flavor.
- Adjust the garlic to your taste preference if you like a more subtle garlic flavor.
- Blend the soup thoroughly to achieve a creamy consistency.
