Warm Cucumber Soup

Thank you to Miri Freidman for sharing this recipe from the kitchen of her mother, Mrs. Morgenstern!

The recipe calls for those long, thin English cucumbers, which Martha Stewart says are preferred because they are “less bitter” than their American counterparts. So although you and I may not have heard of cooking cucumbers before, apparently Martha Stewart has!
