GOOD OLD-FASHIONED AMERICAN GRILLED CHEESE AND TOMATO SOUP



Good Old-Fashioned American Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

20 slices deli-sliced American cheese (yellow or white)
8 slices good, thick country white bread
8 tablespoons salted butter, at room temperature
Tomato Soup, recipe follows, for serving
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 yellow onion, minced
2 carrots, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
1/2 teaspoon crushed red chile flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 tablespoons dry sherry
Two 28-ounce cans whole San Marzano tomatoes
2 bay leaves
1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Place 5 slices* of cheese in between two slices of bread (two on each side and one in the middle). Spread about 1 tablespoon butter on each exterior side of the bread. Remember, crust-to-crust is a must. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Place the first side in the pan (cooking in batches if necessary) and "dome" with an inverted large metal bowl or pan lid to create the proper vortex of heat. Cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes, then flip and continue to cook until the cheese is gooey and bread is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes more.
  • Cut, slowly separate and watch as the cascade of gooey good ol' American cheese catches the sunlight streaming through the kitchen window and throws a glow of warm orange light throughout your entire house. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Serve with the Tomato Soup.
  • *I know this sounds excessive, but it ensures the most possible ooey-gooeyness. If you're watching the intake, you can scale back to 3 slices.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Add the butter, onions, carrots, celery, chile flakes and a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Sauté until translucent, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook for an additional minute. Deglaze with the sherry while scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the tomatoes, bay leaves and stock. Simmer until everything is cooked through and very tender, about 1 hour.
  • Discard the bay leaves and blend the soup until completely smooth and uniform in texture using an immersion blender. Add the heavy cream and adjust the seasoning. Serve!

OLD FASHIONED TOMATO SOUP



Old Fashioned Tomato Soup image

Mother made this soup when I was a child, and it was always one of my favorites. After 75 years, it still is!

It never took her long to make a kettle of this wonderful soup. -Wilma Miller, Port Angeles, Washington

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes: The better the quality of your tomatoes, the better your soup will taste. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and free of blemishes.
  • Roast your tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives the soup a smoky depth of flavor. If you don't have time to roast the tomatoes, you can use canned whole tomatoes. Just be sure to drain them well before adding them to the soup.
  • Use a good quality chicken or vegetable broth: The broth is the base of your soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. If you're using canned broth, look for one that is low in sodium. You can also make your own broth by simmering chicken or vegetable bones in water for several hours.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be tender but still retain their shape. If you overcook them, they will become mushy and the soup will lose its texture.
  • Season the soup to taste: Taste the soup before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.

Conclusion:

Cream of tomato soup is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and delicious. It's the perfect soup to warm you up on a cold day. With a few simple tips, you can make a creamy, flavorful soup that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
