Easy Cream Of Tomato Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in dutch oven.
• Blend in flour until smooth.
• Pour in tomato juice and stir until it thickens.
• Stir in baking soda.
• Add milk, sugar, and salt.
• Heat thoroughly.
• Divide into bowls and top with cheese (if desired).
• This soup does not curdle.

Steps:

• Simmer diced tomatoes in juice in a saucepan over low heat until hot, 7 to 10 minutes. Add baking soda and let the mixture foam. Stir tomato soup, parsley, sugar, margarine, chicken base, and white pepper into the tomato mixture; cook until hot, about 5 minutes. Pour milk into tomato mixture and stir; cook until hot, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine broth and tomatoes in a medium saucepan over moderate heat. When soup bubbles, stir in heavy cream and reduce heat to low. Season with a little salt and pepper and simmer gently 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. With an immersion blender, puree soup. Serve bowls of soup with basil chiffonade and floating Soup Toppers.
• Toast bread slices in your toaster until golden. Rub the toasted bread rounds with crushed garlic, if using. Arrange bread on cookie or baking sheet. Drizzle each slice with extra-virgin oil and top with a grind of black pepper and a layer of shredded cheese. Place under hot broiler to melt cheese until toppers are golden brown in color.

Steps:

• Saute chopped fresh herbs in butter; add 1 jar pasta sauce, 2 cups water, 1/2 cup heavy cream and a pinch of nutmeg; simmer for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-low heat. Add the onions and carrots and saute for about 10 minutes, until very tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, sugar, tomato paste, basil, chicken stock, salt, and pepper and stir well. Bring the soup to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer, uncovered, for 30 to 40 minutes, until the tomatoes are very tender.
• Add the cream to the soup and process it through a food mill into a bowl, discarding only the dry pulp that's left. Reheat the soup over low heat just until hot and serve with julienned basil leaves and/or croutons.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, over medium heat, saute onions in butter until translucent. Remove from the heat. Stir in the flour so that no lumps remain, then slowly whisk in the tomato juice. Return to the heat and add salt to taste. Cook until just boiling but turn off the heat before it boils. Let cool 10 minutes then slowly stir in milk. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place a strainer over a large measuring cup. Drain and SAVE the juice from both stewed and diced tomatoes. Press down on the tomatoes with the back of a spoon to drain more juice. Measure 3 cups juice, discard excess or save for another use. (Bloody Mary anyone?) Set aside both juice and tomatoes.
• Melt the butter in a large pot, sprinkle in the flour; stir and cook 1 minute. Add the brown sugar, tomato paste and allspice; stir.
• Whisk in the chicken broth gradually; then add the reserved tomato juice and both kinds of tomatoes.
• Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce to a simmer and cook 10 minutes.
• Puree with an immersion blender, food processor or blender. Don't fill more than halfway if using a food processor or blender and cover with a kitchen towel before turning it on. Leave as chunky as you like and call it a bisque or puree smooth for cream soup.
• Pour through a strainer into the same pot.
• Heat cream/milk in microwave until steaming, stir into soup. Heating the cream/milk helps keep it from curdling.
• Bring back to simmer. Do not boil after adding cream/milk - it will curdle. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper, more cream/milk or more sugar if desired.
• Pureeing tomato seeds can make the soup a little bitter; adding a little more brown sugar will remove the bitterness.

Steps:

• Put the oil, onions, celery, carrots, potatoes and bay leaves in a big casserole dish, or two saucepans. Fry gently until the onions are softened - about 10-15 mins. Fill the kettle and boil it.
• Stir in the tomato purée, sugar, vinegar, chopped tomatoes and passata, then crumble in the stock cubes. Add 1 litre boiling water and bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 15 mins until the potato is tender, then remove the bay leaves. Purée with a stick blender (or ladle into a blender in batches) until very smooth. Season to taste and add a pinch more sugar if it needs it. The soup can now be cooled and chilled for up to 2 days, or frozen for up to 3 months.
• To serve, reheat the soup, stirring in the milk - try not to let it boil. Serve in small bowls for the children with cheesy sausage rolls then later in bowls for the adults as Hot Bloody Mary soup (see 'Goes well with' recipes, below).

Steps:

• Place all ingredients except the cream and basil or dill (if using) in a large saucepan. Simmer for approximately 30 minutes, or until veggies are soft.
• Using an immersion blender, puree the veggie mixture to your preferred smoothness (I like to have some tomato chunks in it, so I leave it a little chunky. If I accidentally over-puree it, I'll cheat and add a small can of diced tomatoes).
• Add light cream (start with 1/2 cup and add more to taste -- amount will depend on flavor of the tomatoes). Heat soup gently over low heat.
• Before serving, stir in fresh herbs (if using), and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve soup hot or chilled, whichever you prefer (hot is my preference).

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Transfer to a large saucepan; heat through.

Steps:

• Heat a medium-sized pan, melt butter with oil.
• Sweat onion, garlic, celery, pepper and chili until translucent.
• Add tomatoes and vegetable stock.
• Bring to boil, then let simmer until vegetables are soft.
• Liquidise in a blender (I use a hand-held blender, but watch out for the hot liquid splashing!).
• Put the soup back on the fire, add mascarpone cheese (if using), cream and salt to taste.
• Serve with toast or crostini.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium stockpot over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic (if using), stirring constantly, until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes.
• Add tomatoes, their juices, and stock. Season with salt and pepper and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.
• Working in batches, transfer tomato mixture to a blender, food processor, or food mill. Puree tomato mixture (if using a blender, cover the lid with a kitchen towel while machine is running).
• Return soup to a clean pot and set over low heat. Whisk in cream, if desired; season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately or transfer soup to a bowl set over an ice-water bath to cool completely. Transfer cooled soup to an airtight container and refrigerate. Reheat over medium heat until heated through.

Steps:

• Simmer tomatoes, onions, sugar, and salt and pepper. Once onions are soft, strain. Set liquid aside.
• In a saucepan, melt the butter or margarine. Stir in the flour. Whisk in the milk, and cook until thickened. Slowly add the reserved tomato liquid, and gently heat. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a large pot add coconut oil, onion, garlic and carrot, sauté on medium heat until just soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add tomato paste and cook for about 2 minutes while stirring.
• Add stock, maple syrup, lemon juice, thyme, bay leaf and tomatoes, simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Remove from heat, remove bay leaf and thyme, and add to food processor or blender, blend until smooth.
• Return to pot and stir in coconut milk, add sea salt to taste.
