Step 2:Allow to cool slightly; puree in a food processor or blender with the basil, parsley and lemon juice until smooth. Stir in the buttermilk. Place in a container, cover and refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight.
Step 3:When ready to serve, whisk until smooth and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve chilled, garnished with chopped basil and parsley.
Step 4:**This soup can be prepared as below or varied by using all zucchini, all crookneck, or even all pattypan squash.
