This chilled fruit soup brings the tropics right to your table.

Ripe papaya gets pureed with fresh orange juice and a whisper of cumin, then chilled until it’s silky smooth and ice-cold.

It’s the kind of starter that makes people lean in and ask, “Wait, what IS this?"

The trick is letting it sit overnight so the flavors meld into something truly special.

Top each bowl with chopped almonds and grated coconut for crunch that plays against all that creamy sweetness.

Chef Tips

  • Use a papaya that’s soft and fragrant for the best flavor. If it doesn’t smell like anything at the store, it won’t taste like much in the bowl.
  • Chill the soup overnight rather than just a few hours. The cumin and citrus need time to get to know each other.
  • Serve in chilled bowls for maximum refreshment on a hot day.
