Fresh Tomato Soup
This tomato soup recipe is simple, quick, and perfect to make when tomatoes are ripe in gardens and farmers' markets for a delicious summertime treat.
Ingredient:
-
4 cups chopped fresh tomatoes
-
2 cups chicken broth
-
4 cloves garlic
-
1 large slice of onion
-
2 tablespoons butter
-
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
-
2 teaspoons white sugar, or to taste
-
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
Recipe Direction :
Combine tomatoes, chicken broth, garlic cloves, and a large slice of onion in a stockpot over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and gently simmer for about 20 minutes to blend flavors.
Remove from heat and run the mixture through a food mill into a large bowl, or pan. Discard any stuff left over in the food mill.
Melt butter over medium heat in the now empty stockpot. Stir in flour to make a roux by cooking, whisking constantly, until mixture turns medium brown.
Gradually whisk in a bit of the tomato mixture to prevent lumps from forming, then stir in the rest.
Season with sugar and salt to taste.
Serve hot and enjoy!
