Do you peel zucchini for soup?
There is no need to peel zucchini for soup.
The peel will soften as it cooks. It also keeps the soup that beautiful green color.
Can you freeze the soup?
This soup freezes perfectly! Freeze in airtight container.
Defrost and reheat when ready to serve.
Don't add the sour cream until ready to serve the soup.
Why use red curry?
*Red Curry Powder not only adds a great flavor, it has a number of important health benefits and healing properties.
These include: protection to the immune system, prevention of cancer, protection against heart disease, reduction of body inflammation, reduction of Alzheimer’s disease symptoms, and helps the liver remove toxins from the body.

How many calories is it per serving?? I see it says "89 kcal" which to me looks like 89,000 calories and I really hope that's not right.. lol! If you could help me out I would be really grateful!!

Sorry. Honestly, I have always made the recipe just by grabbing the zucchini in the store. I never see very large zucchini, you must have a fantastic garden. I would say 1 1/2 lb in weight for zucchini would work perfect.

"6 small or 5 large zucchini..." this leaves a lot open to interpretation. I decided to cut the recipe in half since I only had 2 large zucchini from my garden. By the time I cut up the first one I had 4 qts of zucchini and two remaining to go! I see this is only 6 servings so could you clarify in cups or by weight, how much chopped zucchini is needed?
Thanks for the delicious recipe!

Oh my gosh! That sounds AMAZING! Love the crab addition!

I make this soup every year during zucchini harvest and our local crabbing season. I add about 1/2 to 3/4 cups of Dungeness crab to a soup dish, then pour in the zucchini curry soup and garnish with cilantro on top. Delish!

You are killin' it lately with all your healthy recipes! I have a ton of organic zucchini in my weekly CSA share and I'm running out of cooking ideas for them. I adore curry and spicy flavors so this recipe is on my list to make next week for dinner. And leftovers means lunch the next day(s). Oh yeah!!
