Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
5 medium-large tomatoes, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic
1 beet, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 tablespoon honey
1 dash tabasco sauce
1 dash worcestershire sauce
salt & pepper
2 small cucumbers, chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Add olive oil to a large pot over medium-high heat.
  • Add everything except cucumbers and parsley to the pot and bring to a simmer.
  • Cook on medium for about 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally to help break down the vegetables.
  • Season to taste with more salt, pepper, tabasco and worcestershire sauce as desired.
  • Remove from heat and transfer to a blender.
  • Add parsley and 1 cucumber.
  • Pulse 2-3 times just to break up the chunks of vegetables remaining. The consistency should be like a thick, chunk soup at this point.
  • Transfer from blender to a food mill.
  • Using the smallest holed plate, run mixture through the food mill.
  • Transfer the mixture back to the blender, add the remaining cucumber and blend for about 1 minute on high to get a nice smooth, juice consistency. It will still be thicker than a normal juice, but not chewy.
