CREAMY TOMATO AND SUMMER HERB SOUP



Creamy Tomato and Summer Herb Soup image

This creamy tomato and summer herb soup takes less than 25 minutes to prepare and can be served hot or cold. I prefer it hot. It is bursting with flavor and contains a full serving of vegetables in each bowl. Tarragon is the herb of choice in this version of the recipe, but chopped basil or even mint would work, too. While some creamy soups are made with heavy cream or sour cream, this one gets a rich, tangy flavor from a modest amount of reduced-fat sour cream. If you like, you can use low-fat plain yogurt instead. The soup is best when made with ripe tomatoes, but a 28-ounce can of diced tomatoes with their juices can be substituted in a pinch. For a complete light meal, serve this soup with a salad and a few slices of grilled whole-grain baguette.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium sweet onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
4 large ripe tomatoes, diced (about 4 cups)
3/4 cup water
1/3 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium.
  • Add the onion and saute until softened, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes and water, then bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the soup to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth, in batches, if necessary (use caution when blending hot liquids).
  • Set a strainer over the saucepan.
  • Pour the puree through the strainer, pressing on the solids with a wooden spoon or spatula to extract as much of the pulp as possible; discard the seeds and skin.
  • Whisk the sour cream and tarragon into the soup.
  • Stir over low heat until the soup is hot, but not boiling.
  • Season with salt and pepper.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 small onion (about 1/2 cup chopped)
1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes seasoned with basil garlic & oregano
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 cup low-fat milk (or whole milk or half-and-half)
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

  • Add the garlic, and stir and cook for 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes with their juices and the tomato sauce. Raise the heat to high, and bring the soup to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the milk and parmesan cheese. Do not boil the soup after the milk has been added. Stir and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and serve at once. Garnish with croutons and fresh snipped herbs.

Tips:

  • Select flavorful tomatoes: Choose ripe, juicy tomatoes with a deep red color. This will ensure a rich and flavorful soup.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme add a burst of flavor to the soup. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: When cooking the vegetables, make sure the pot is not overcrowded. This will prevent them from steaming instead of browning.
  • Simmer for flavor: Simmer the soup for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and deepen.
  • Adjust the consistency: If you want a thicker soup, puree some of the tomatoes before adding them to the pot. For a thinner soup, add more broth or water.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Garnish the soup with fresh herbs, grated Parmesan cheese, or a dollop of sour cream before serving.

Conclusion:

This quick and creamy tomato soup is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. With its vibrant red color, fresh herb flavor, and creamy texture, this soup is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a quick and satisfying meal, give this tomato soup a try!
