TOMATO SOUP WITH A TWIST



Tomato Soup with a Twist image

In 1932, our junior high school cooking class teacher taught us a simple recipe starting with a can of tomato soup. As I was preparing tomato soup for lunch recently, I remembered those two additional ingredients. I had forgotten what a tasty difference the peanut butter and cheese make. -Eleanor Stamen, Whitehall, Pennsylvania

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Soup
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, smashed with the side of a knife and peeled
5 cups canned whole tomatoes in juice
1 cup water
2/3 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon celery seed
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano or 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh oregano
1 tablespoon sugar
Brown Butter Croutons
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 slices european-style rustic bread, crusts removed, cut into 3/4- to 1-inch cubes (30 to 36 cubes)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the butter and olive oil in a large saucepan and sauté the onion and garlic until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, water, cream, salt, red pepper flakes, celery seed, oregano, and sugar. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • 2. Remove from the heat and puree in batches in the container of a blender. Return the soup to the pot and reheat to a simmer, seasoning to taste with more salt and pepper.
  • 3. Meanwhile, to make the brown butter croutons, preheat the oven to 350°F. Heat the butter in a small pan over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until the butter is golden brown and aromatic, about 3 minutes after the butter melts. Remove from the heat. Put the bread cubes in a bowl and pour the brown butter over them, tossing to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper and toss again. Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet and place it in the oven. Bake until the croutons are toasted and golden, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the pan from the oven.
  • 4. Serve the soup hot, garnished with the croutons.

FRESH TOMATO SOUP WITH CRISPY CHEESE TOAST



Fresh Tomato Soup with Crispy Cheese Toast image

We're doing a very fresh twist on the classic cream of tomato soup with a grilled cheese sandwich. Since we're using fresh tomatoes at their peak of vine-ripened goodness, this simple soup is going to be not quite, but almost, 100% tomato.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Vegetable Soup Recipes     Tomato Soup Recipes

Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 ½ pounds vine-ripened tomatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 anchovy fillet
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 pinch red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 slices Italian bread
¼ cup thinly sliced basil leaves
6 ounces shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Remove cores from tomatoes and cut in half crosswise. Reserve until needed.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and anchovy and cook until garlic is sizzling in the hot fat, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Carefully add the tomatoes with their juices, salt, and red pepper flakes. Toss with a spoon every few minutes until the tomatoes release their liquid and start to break down.
  • Once the tomatoes have softened and start to collapse, reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have fallen apart and the soup resembles a coarse tomato sauce, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil or a silicone liner. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  • Place the bread slices on the prepared baking sheet. Top each slice with sliced basil, and then Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is well browned and crispy around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Remove soup from heat and pass through a mesh strainer into a bowl. Use the back of a ladle to push all the tomato mixture through. Discard the skins and seeds, which should be the only things left in the strainer.
  • Transfer the strained tomato soup back into the saucepan and place back over medium-low heat. Continue cooking to thicken slightly, if desired, or simply bring back to a simmer and serve immediately with the cheese toasts.

BROTHY TOMATO SOUP



Brothy Tomato Soup image

In this recipe, you use bacon renderings as the base of the soup. This adds a nice smokey flavor that pairs nicely with the pungent, spicy flavors from the kimchi and gochujang.

  • Add the kimchi and onion to the pot. Cook, stirring and scraping up any browned bits, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the gochujang and brown sugar and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are coated and the bottom of the pot is starting to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the soup is slightly reduced and thickened, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove 1 1/2 cups soup from the pot and transfer to a blender; puree until smooth. Return to the pot and stir to combine. Add more gochujang if desired, 1/2 teaspoon at a time.

TOMATO SOUP WITH CHEESE & MARMITE TWISTS



Tomato soup with cheese & Marmite twists image

A comforting childhood favourite - make up a batch and keep in the freezer for a quick supper

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Lunch, Soup, Supper

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

50g Red Leicester or cheddar
1 ready-to-use sheet puff pastry
2 tsp Marmite (if you don't like Marmite use a little mustard instead)
1 large onion
2 tbsp olive oil
8 large tomatoes
400ml vegetable stock
4 tbsp tomato ketchup
½ tsp dried oregano
300ml double cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Finely grate the cheese. Unravel the pastry, spread evenly with the Marmite, then sprinkle the cheese on top. Now fold the pastry in half to make a sandwich and press down well.
  • Cut the pastry into 12 equal strips. Carefully twist each strip and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 15 mins until golden. Leave for 5 mins to firm up a little, then lift onto a cooling rack with a fish slice.
  • Halve the onion, then peel and chop it. Fry in the oil for about 5 mins, stirring with a wooden spoon until soft but not coloured, as this will spoil the colour of the soup later.
  • Chop the tomatoes, then add to the pan with the stock, ketchup and oregano. Season. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat. Cover the pan, then simmer for 15 mins until the veg are soft.
  • Tip the cream into the soup, then gently heat, stirring with the wooden spoon until it just starts to bubble. Don't boil vigorously as the cream could curdle. Ladle into bowls and serve with the Cheese & Marmite straws.

Tips for an Amazing Tomato Soup with a Twist

- **Roast your tomatoes**: Roasting tomatoes intensifies their flavor and adds a smoky depth to the soup. - **Use a variety of tomatoes**: Try using a mix of different types of tomatoes, such as Roma, cherry, and heirloom, to create a complex flavor profile. - **Add some heat**: To taste, include a pinch of red pepper flakes or a few drops of Sriracha. - **Use a good quality vegetable broth**: To avoid any bitter notes, use a high-quality vegetable broth, or make your broth. - **Simmer gently**: To prevent the soup from becoming too acidic, simmer it gently over low heat. - **Garnish with fresh herbs**: For an extra pop of flavor and color, garnish the soup with fresh parsley, basil, or thyme.
