The prototype of this recipe was the Bulgarian tarator - either a drink or a soup made from grated cucumbers. In hot weather, this cucumber liquid is seasoned with sour milk and mixed with ice. We slightly added density to the soup and enhanced the emerald hue by adding fresh spinach to the cucumbers. And for satiety, we threw cubes of fried tofu into the plate: our body needs protein in any weather, but in the summer heat, soy curd is easier to digest than meat. If you season the soup with soy yogurt instead of regular yogurt, the recipe will become vegan.
