  5. Comments: Once the soup is processed, the addition of extra yogurt adds a creamy texture. The diced cucumber and radishes add in a crunchy texture. If hothouse cucumbers are not available, substitute the hard garden variety and double the amount called for. Peel cucumbers and halve lengthwise, then seed.
