When Karine & Jeff dream of the Mediterranean, they envision sun-drenched landscapes where colours and flavours merge into a vivid tableau. It’s this love of the southeast that inspired our Provençal soup, a recipe that embodies the region’s light and joie de vivre. Imagine a summer vegetable garden transposed into a bowl: ripe tomatoes, crisp courgettes, flavourful peppers, sweet onions, and juicy carrots, all carrying the promise of sunny, carefree days.
Our Provençal soup bursts with summer flavours, the perfect start to a dinner under the stars on one of those long summer evenings. To elevate these garden-fresh notes, we’ve seasoned our recipe with thyme, rosemary, and basil—herbs that instantly conjure the stories and enchanting aromas of Provence.
Beyond its delightful bouquet of flavours, this soup boasts a rich nutritional profile, abundant in fibre and minerals. Compared to gazpacho, it’s one of our most hydrating and refreshing soups, ideal for reinvigorating the body and mind after a day of adventures with friends. It’s an invigorating cocktail of freshness and flavour that awaits at the summit of your adventure.
To fully savour the Provençal soup, garnish your bowl with a few fresh basil leaves, echoing the aroma already present. A drizzle of olive oil will complete the experience, transporting you even closer to the shores of the Mediterranean. And for an aperitif that celebrates the spirit of the South, pair it with a creamy tapenade or a slice of fresh cheese.
