Home made cream of tomato soup with garlic croutons. The cream is in the middle and hasn't been stirred in yet.
We served the soup with cream and garlic croutons, and it was so good that we ate it all. I'm sure that surprises you.

Tomato soup
After our appetizer of snails on Wednesday, we ate tomato soup. We thawed out some of our frozen tomato sauce, made from last year's crop, and added some herbs and aromatic vegetables (carrots, onion, and celery) and let it simmer for a while. Then Ken blitzed it all with the stick blender.

What a gorgeous looking bowlful of goodness for a cold and windy January day!
ReplyDeleteIt makes me think I can't wait to have my own glut of home grown tomatoes to deal with for the freezer.
A lovely respite for these cold days.
ReplyDeleteEven I'd consume that with considerable gusto - mais pas d'ail, Walt, s'il te plait.
ReplyDeleteI'm shocked that you ate it all!
ReplyDeleteSoup makes everything better. Cream of tomato is my favorite too.

chris, and to think I used to eat it out of a can.
I still do eat soups out of cans - except for cup-a-soups from packets..

ReplyDeleteMe too. Now I eat it out of a box, and I like that too.
I would sell my grandmother to have this soup.
