Creamy Heirloom Tomato Soup.
This Creamy Heirloom Tomato Soup is an absolute winning recipe for the colder days that have already arrived here up north! I had an abundance of ripe heirloom tomatoes to use up; and it was a super cold, rainy day! A meal that was warming, comforting and very delicious as well as nutritious was more than welcome! So I pulled out my immersion blender and within minutes made my Creamy Heirloom Tomato Soup. This is a super simple recipe!
2-3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup chopped organic garlic scapes or substitute with 1 teaspoon of chopped garlic
1/2 cup chopped organic fennel
1/4 cup chopped organic onion
1 organic carrot, chopped
1/2 cup broth of choice
6-8 very ripe organic heirloom tomatoes, chopped
1 teaspoon each salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon shallot powder (Burlap and Barrel)
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons ghee( I like turmeric infused ghee)
1/2 cup greek yogurt
In a stock pot heat the olive to medium high
Add in the garlic, fennel, onion and carrots
Cook, stirring until vegetables soften
Stir in the broth and then the chopped tomatoes
Season with the spices and herbs
Add in the sugar
Reduce to simmer and cook a few more minutes
Now stir in the ghee and yogurt
Turn the heat off
Blend the soup with an immersion blender on low speed
Low speed will ensure that some of the vegetables will not completely blend in, giving the soup some substance.
The flavor of my Creamy Heirloom Tomato Soup is absolutely amazing! Enjoy and stay warm!
