Chilledfreshtomatosoup Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium, add the tomatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until juicy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomato juice, basil sprigs and 3 cups water. Bring to a simmer and cook until the tomatoes are very soft, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Add 3 cups bread cubes and return the soup to a simmer. Cook, mashing the bread with a wooden spoon, until broken down, 5 to 7 minutes. Discard the basil sprigs. Stir in the vinegar. Working in two batches, puree the soup in a blender until smooth, adding 2 tablespoons olive oil per batch. Refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Before serving, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the remaining 2 cups bread cubes; cook, tossing, until golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Season the soup with salt; top with the croutons and chopped basil.

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.

Steps:

• Working in two batches, place in a blender tomatoes, tomato juice, ginger, coriander, sugar, oil, and 3 tablespoons lime juice; puree on high speed until liquefied. Pour batches into a large bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper; refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour. Before serving, taste for seasoning. If desired, thin with cold water.
• In a small bowl, whisk yogurt and remaining tablespoon lime juice until smooth; season with salt and pepper. Ladle soup into four serving bowls; top each with a dollop of yogurt and, if desired, serve with toasted flatbread.

Steps:

• Whisk the green onion, tomato juice, sour cream, lemon zest and juice together. Season with salt and pepper and chill until dinner time. Chill cucumber and cantaloupe dice separately. Right before serving, combine the tomato juice mixture with the cucumber and cantaloupe, adjust the seasoning and serve with slices of fresh avocado.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Bake tomatoes in a shallow baking pan in middle of oven 10 minutes. Coarsely chop yellow and red tomatoes separately. Blend yellow tomatoes, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon chile-pepper water, and 1 teaspoon garlic in a blender until smooth. Force soup through a fine sieve into a large liquid-measuring cup, pressing hard on solids, and season with salt. Make red-tomato soup in same manner with remaining soup ingredients, straining into a separate liquid-measuring cup. Chill soups, covered, until cold.
• Pour soups simultaneously from opposite sides into a Martini glass (colors will remain separate), using about one fourth of each soup. Repeat to fill 3 more glasses.

Steps:

• In a large plastic refrigerator container (Tupperware or Rubbermaid), mix together the first 5 ingredients; stir to mix.
• Using a small skillet, over low heat, warm the olive oil.
• Saute the garlic, cumin, paprika, and cinnamon, stirring constantly, for 1 minute; be careful not to scorch.
• Add the spice mixture to the soup.
• Add lemon juice, hot sauce, and salt to taste.
• Refrigerate for 4 hours before serving.

Steps:

• In a large stockpot, heat the oil over medium-low heat. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent and very tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in marjoram, tomatoes, and sugar; season with salt and pepper.
• Raise heat to medium-high, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until liquid is reduced by one-quarter and has thickened slightly, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat. Using a slotted spoon, remove marjoram sprigs. Let soup cool 10 minutes.
• Pass soup through a food mill set over a bowl to puree; discard solids. Season with salt and pepper. Serve garnished with marjoram sprigs if desired.
