CHILLED TOMATO, ROASTED GARLIC, AND BASIL SOUP

Yield Makes about 41/2 cups, serving 4 as a first course
Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- In a small heavy skillet dry-roast garlic over moderately low heat, turning it occasionally, until skin is browned and garlic is tender, about 20 minutes, and peel. In a blender purée garlic and tomatoes in batches and force through a fine sieve into a bowl. Stir in vinegar, Tabasco, and salt to taste. Chill soup, covered, at least until cold, about 6 hours, and up to 1 day. Before serving, stir in basil and season with salt and pepper if necessary.
Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the flavor of your soup. Choose ripe, juicy tomatoes that are in season and have a deep red color.
- Roast the tomatoes before simmering: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives the soup a smoky, caramelized taste. You can roast the tomatoes in the oven or on the stovetop.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When simmering the soup, make sure not to overcrowd the pot. This will prevent the tomatoes from cooking evenly and will result in a watery soup.
- Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the soup, the more flavorful it will be.
- Season the soup to taste: Once the soup is finished simmering, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of yogurt for extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Fresh tomato and garlic soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is packed with flavor and is a great way to use up fresh tomatoes. This soup can be made ahead of time and reheated, making it a convenient meal option for busy weeknights.
