I skipped the chili powder and, seeing I was short on time, mixed it all together in one bowl. Also added 3 ripe chopped apricots with some fresh thyme as well, along with the fresh mint from the garden--divine!... Put in the fridge for 2 hours and served in crystal bowls for dessert- everyone raved! Thank you!
This was good! I think the next time I make it, I might puree about half the strawberries, but the flavors blended nicely together and nothing was particularly overpowering. I'm still on the hunt for a strawberry soup recipe my husband remembers from his childhood - this wasn't it, but he enjoyed it.
Had this for breakfast this morning and everyone really liked it. Didn't know how long to keep the mint in the yogurt, ended up doing that for half an hour. Should it be longer? Yogurt came out minty, but if longer = mintier, I would do that! Was timid with the chili powder at 1/2 tsp, but would do the whole tsp. next time.
