BEST Tomato Soup Recipe!

[@fargokid71]

Best home-made tomato soup I ever tasted was by a woman who lived on a farm outside Huron SD in 1972. She had a large tomato garden right outside her home. Her soup was so good that I still dream about it. Thumb's UP.

[@patrickpaterson8785]

My dad just moved to Huron. I'll have to see if that tomato garden is still around...

[@Pjnaltamonte]

I followed this recipe to the letter and it turned out AMAZING! I added a little sugar to round out the acidity during the simmering and fresh basil at the end. Definitely my new favorite.

[@alishamurdock3796]

I was going to suggest the sugar addition when I saw your comment. I always add a dollop of butter to my tomato soup for a nice buttery creaminess. Oh, boy‼️ I will try your basil suggestion as well the next time I make some soup!❤❤❤

[@queenmothra9433]

I made this, I dont like tomato soup but I had tomatoes coming out of my ears and needed to use them. This recipe is so good it made me like tomato soup. The only thing I did differently was leave out the carrots because I was out and cooked the tomato paste with the onions and celery. So good and smells amazing!

[@NicePersonNumberSeven]

That seemed like a lot of garlic. It wasn’t too much?

[@MrsBungle78]

That was exactly what I was thinking- why didn’t he add the tomato paste to the onions, celery etc?

[@NickyderLizard]

@@NicePersonNumberSeven The flavour and intensity of the garlic gets mellow, smooth and smokey when you roast them. It seems like a lot, but is yummy as hell

[@NicePersonNumberSeven]

Kneecolas Thanks. I also have tomatoes coming out the yingyang, so I’ll give it a try.

[@SomewhereInIndiana1816]

Awesome thanks for the suggestion!!

[@VictorCharlesEvans]

This Chef really knows what he is doing! He's used magic tomatoes! 13 go in 8 come out! Truly magic!

[@andressosa7139]

Guys, I highly recommend this recipe. I made this and saved some in the freezer -3 months later it still has great flavor. Can't wait till it cools down to roast tomatoes and garlic again.

[@Xxblue1000]

Tried this receipe yesterday for some friends and everybod was impressed!! thank you Chef

[@beckv8526]

I'm glad to have found a tomato soup that doesn't use sugar, or worse, ketchup. Definitely going to try this when it's not 90°F outside. Thank you for sharing.

[@mrspikiespike4807]

I usually use Sugar with tomatoes only to take the edge of the sharpness or the acidic level, you only need a tiny bit though. Same with my bolognese.

[@deanvd9463]

Beck V Definitely, it’s really nice to sweeten up a meal with the natural sugars of the ingredients like he did

[@PHDWhom]

Ketchup?

[@jixuscrixus1967]

Callista Graves: I thought the same..... who uses ketchup when they’re making tomato soup?

[@prantapradhan228]

This exactly what I had been needing for this monsoon season here in Nepal!

[@rayzer8]

I like to add some sweet red peppers in to roast off too. Really adds to it

Great method! Will make very soon with garden fresh organic tomatoes , garlic and onions grown in the Similkameen Valley, BC, Canada. Yum! Thanks for this great tutorial! 😋

You live in one of the most beautiful places in BC! We never miss visiting your valley.

[@sheliafrench1276]

Terry Hansen Oh my goodness I just know that’s going to be good I grew tomatoes this month I mean this summer and when I would cut them the smell would hit me so strong they smell so good and sweet there’s nothing like him I definitely can tell the difference between fresh vegetables that store right now ever since I started growing my own I love them enjoy

[@Tigerlily1950]

Shelia French home Brown are the best! If you have a bumper crop try slicing, dehydrating and grinding I to tomato powder for soups, stews, dips and more. Fantastic!

[@lupindraws]

I just made this - I didn't use celery and substituted thyme for basil - it was INCREDIBLE, thank you!

[@marcjtdc]

Yep. I learned that way of cooking garlic a while ago. It's interesting how the natural casing roasts it to perfection, and its soooo easy to do and so healthy to eat on its own or spread on toasted french bread wow!

[@healingsun5654]

Oh my!. In a blistering hot summer's day in my area, I purchased some locally grown beautiful tomatoes & made this soup. I can't stop stealing teaspoons of it to taste it again & again, while it cools down, before I put it in my freezer. I followed the recipe to a T, except that I doubled it. It is so delicious & a cut above any normal tomato soup. Do be sure to get the fresh Thyme for it & some organic Russian garlic. Heavenly is the word that comes to mind. This one is a keeper. thank you Donal.

[@kittensprout5527]

I don't have an immersion blender so I blended the tomatoes with some stock and then cooked it down with everything The soup is reallly good! I highly recommend!

[@frazermowat8069]

Hi Donal. I'll be making this soup this afternoon. I love making all different varieties of soups.

[@debjohn8550]

Looks really good and easy to make. I love a good tomato soup with my fantastic grilled cheese sandwich.

[@dayrue4696]

Ok- We had a cold day and I made this recipe after visiting the farmers market. Tips- I lined my sheet tray with tinfoil before roasting tomatoes. Some roasted garlic cloves are firmer the others and I just left em whole and the blender did the rest- I tossed a No Chicken boullion cube in for more savory since we don’t eat meat. Skipped the olive oil drizzle an topped with fresh basil - and GoVeggie Parm. 😘 da Bomb! Grilled bread for dipping and an awesome red. Best Sunday this year.

[@2AChef-n-BBQ]

Tried, removed seeds pulp and skin from tomatoes, and it's a decent soup. No olive oil or sprig of thyme on top, used a quarter cup of heavy cream instead, really made a more luxurious flavor for me

[@christoohunders5316]

Thought the same about seeds and skins

[@damien1781]

You used the word luxurious way too loosely

[@2AChef-n-BBQ]

@@damien1781 probably true, but I though saying; "a much more pleasing mouth feel" could sound X rated......lmfao

[@DEVUNK88]

I like to take some extra time and always split and peel my garlic, and then I roast it in a small bowl of butter, which makes me some nice roasted garlic butter for garlic breads or using in steamed veggies or whatever.

Great! Now how about you make a video of your soup so we can all judge it and add our own stuff to it because ours is better .

You might want to add the tomatoe puree while you're caramelizing the onions and carrots to cook of the bitterness that is part of 'uncooked' tomatoe paste. Beside that: great recipe!

[@josephcampese5347]

anything and everything canned, is cooked before it's put in the can and sealed.

[@dmverloop1]

Joseph Campese That's not the point. You're not sterilizing the tomatoe puree, you're getting rid of it's inherent and 'natural' tanginess. By caramelizing the paste, you sweeten it up a bit.

[@josephcampese5347]

I responded to you saying tomato paste is uncooked. Which clearly, you wrote. I think the point is, your poor choice of words and not me missing the point.

Making this tonight with garden tomatoes! Yum!

[@blacksunshine5758]

First, I don't have any fresh herbs or dried Rosemary. All I used for spices besides the 2 garlic heads, was about 1/2 teaspoon each of kosher salt, pepper & parsley plus a pinch of dried thyme. My friend gave me about 2.5 lbs of regular tomatoes from her garden. I used 2 carrots, 2 stalks of celery, 1 big Vidalia onion & one 16oz can of low sodium chicken broth. AMAZING & it yielded about 4 bowls. I will definitely make this again and double it.

[@georgehenderson7783]

@@francismcdonnell753 Have you never had a grilled cheese sandwich? If not - it's so easy and delicious - spread butter onto two pieces of bread - I recommend slicing a baguette / long French bread in half but you can use regular sliced bread, put the buttered side of one piece of bread onto a fry pan on low heat/flame, cover the top of the bread with cheese slices ( I like gouda, you can use your favorite cheese ), put the unbuttered side of the other piece of bread on top of the cheese so that the buttered side is up, let it grill for a few minutes, when the bottom piece of bread starts turning golden brown, turn it over and let the other side grill until golden brown. The cheese in the center should be pretty much melted. It helps if you cover the pan with a lid while grilling. Try it!

If you grow your own tomatoes add a section of stem slightly crushed with the onions and carrots etc. This will make the soup more zingy and intensify the tomato flavor instead of tomato puree. Take the stem out and throw it away before blitzing it up like you would a bouquet garni or bay leaf. Give it a go! What a superb recipe. THANKS
