1 1/2 lbs zucchini, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 1/2 tablespoons butter

1/2 teaspoon salt (more, to taste)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or less)
1/4 teaspoon basil (or less)
1/4 teaspoon tarragon (or less)
1/4 teaspoon thyme (or less)
2 cups milk, heated but not scalded
1 teaspoon tamari
Directions:
1. Steam the zucchini until just tender. (Steam it over, not in, water).
2. Saute the onion in butter, with salt, until soft(5 minutes or so).
3. Puree all ingredients until smooth- in blender or food processor.
4. Heat gently (don't cook it) just before serving.
