AuthorKevin PetrizioTomato soup is not one of my go to meals. Truth is I probably haven't had it since I was a kid. But I know what it should taste like and what the consistency should be. After cooking this recipe I added the entire mixture into our high power blender. I thought this will really make my soup smooth! I then proceeded to hit the pulse button which blew the cap off the bender and sent hot tomato soup all over my kitchen! Took me an hour just to clean up the mess! So the best advise I can give you is this: Let the soup cool before blending, use a low power blender set on LOW, and blend 1/2 of the soup at a time. This was a request from a client. It is very simple to make and reminds us of our childhood. Who didn't eat a can of tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich as a child? I can't help with the grilled cheese sandwich, but the soup is pretty good!
Roughly chop tomatoes and onions
In a medium sauce pan heat up olive oil and crushed garlic. Add in tomatoes and onions and stir.
Add in water and seasoning and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to a low boil, cover, and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool before blending.
If you like your tomato soup chunky, use an immersion blender until you have the consistency that you like. If you like your soup smooth, you will need to use a stand up blender. Caution: Blend only half of the soup at a time and use only the LOW setting on the blender. Read why above!
Adjust seasoning and serve.
This makes 2 Servings. Each serving is two full cups.
