Soup du Jour (January 20th "Final Exam")

The soup Dick Jordan served at today's "Final Exam" was from the New Your Times recipe "Zucchini-Pear Soup." (Click here to view and print the recipe). Dick made a double batch using Bosc pears and vegetable stock (chicken stock would probably make a richer soup). The soup can be served chilled or hot.

The croutons were made from a ciabatta-style bread cut into pieces, tossed with olive oil, chopped fresh rosemary, salt and pepper, spread in a single layer on a sheet pan and toasted at 350 degrees in the oven until slightly browned and crisped (about 12-15 minutes).
