    Fresh Tomato Soup Enriched with Olive Oil and Served with Rustic Toast

    4
    By Alisa Fleming on March 20, 2019 Dairy-Free Recipes, Soup

    You know how I said “no strict rules” in the new year? What I feel like sharing I will? Well today, this fresh tomato soup is speaking to me. I know it isn’t quite tomato season yet, but tomato soup was a nourishing source of comfort for me as a child. I enjoyed it every season – from the heat of summer, to the darkest, rainiest days of winter (I grew up in the Northwest!). It’s comforting, it packs quite a bit of nutrition, and it’s an easy dish that most of us can agree upon since it suits most dietary needs. And I think it’s a wonderful dish to kick off the first day of spring!

    Fresh Tomato Soup Enriched with Olive Oil and Served with Rustic Toast

    This particular tomato soup recipe is a little different from the ones I grew up with. It’s a richer version that’s infused with olive oil. Since the soup is only lightly heated at the end, it retains the delicate nutrition of extra-virgin olive oil.

    If you want a lighter soup, you can reduce the olive oil, and add some unsweetened dairy-free milk beverage or lite coconut milk in its place.

    The “croutons” are actually slices of toast, but I’ve included an option for making more traditional olive oil croutons.

    Author: Bertolli
    Serves: 4 servings
    Ingredients
    • 4 medium to large tomatoes
    • 3 grilled red bell peppers in oil
    • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil, plus additional for brushing
    • 3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
    • 1 shallot, peeled
    • 1 garlic clove, peeled
    • 10 basil leaves
    • Salt, to taste
    • Black pepper, to taste
    • 4 slices crusty bread (gluten-free, if needed; see note below)
    Instructions
    1. Cut a small cross in the bottom of each tomato and submerge them in boiling water for 30 seconds. Remove them to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for 30 seconds. Peel off the tomato skins.
    2. Put the peeled tomatoes, red bell peppers, extra-virgin olive oil, vinegar, shallot, garlic, and basil in your blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
    3. Pour the mixture into a large pot over medium heat, and heat until cooked through.
    4. Brush the bread with olive oil and grill for 2 minutes per side over medium-high heat, or until visible grill marks have formed.
    Notes
    Croutons: For a classic croutons option, cut the bread into small cubes. Toss with a little olive oil to coat and spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until toasted.

      Hi there, I’m wondering what you’re using to grill your bread and your peppers. Do you have a griddle of some kind?

        On a grill, like a barbecue grill. But you can do it on a griddle or even in a saute pan – it just won’t have the grill marks or the same grill flavor, but will still be good!

      I don’t have sherry vinegar, would the soup work without it as well?

        Do you have balsamic vinegar? It will definitely work without it, but the well-rounded vinegar flavor adds something to it. Balsamic would be equally good. Or you can try it without and season to taste.
