3 small (about 12 ounces (340 g) total) Persian cucumbers, (6-inch/15 cm each), ends trimmed away, cut into chunks, peel intact
2 large slices of sourdough bread about 1-inch (2.5 cm) thick and 8-inches (20 cm) across, torn into pieces
1/3 cups (50 g) toasted whole almonds, blanched or natural
4 cups (960 ml) unsweetened almond milk, such as Almond Breeze
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or Garlic-Infused Oil, made with olive oil
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 1/2 ounces (40 g) baby spinach
1/4 ounce (7 g) fresh mint leaves
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Place cucumbers, bread and almonds in a large bowl (or blender carafe). Add the milk, oil and vinegar, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
Right before serving, scrape the mixture into your blender carafe (if it isn’t in it already) and blend until very smooth. Add spinach and mint, blend again until smooth, then taste and season with salt and pepper as desired. Serve immediately.

We always keep unsweetened almond milk in our Test Kitchen fridge. It is our go-to alt milk for cooking, especially savory. Try different brands to find one that you like.
