Equipment

Instruction

Preparation step 1

Prepare tomatoes

Place the tomatoes in a bowl or roasting pan.

Marinate with olive oil, salt, pepper and some sugar.

Place in the oven at 190°C hot air for 30 minutes. I

I like to use raw cane sugar, its taste is more interesting than the white industrial sugar.

Preparation step 2

Shallots and garlic

Halve, peel and finely dice the shallots and garlic.

I use young garlic where available because it has a finer flavor.

Set up a saucepan and heat two tablespoons of olive oil.

Preparation step 3

Prepare soup

Sauté the diced shallots and diced garlic in the pot for 10 minutes until translucent and colourless.

Optionally add a little sugar and lightly caramelize the starter for the tomato soup.

Preparation step 4

Cook Soup

Deglaze with the white wine, I like to use Prosecco.

Add the prepared tomatoes and the resulting stock and bring to the boil.

Let the tomato soup mixture simmer for 15-25 minutes.

This is how the taste of the soup develops best.

A notice:

If you have leftover tomato stalks, then cook them in the soup, which complements the fine aroma of the soup.

Preparation step 5

Add herbs

Season the tomato soup with salt, pepper, sugar and herbs to taste and serve.

Preparation step 6

Serve

You can supplement the soup with freshly grated Parmesan or Pecorino, with basil, marjoram, oregano and freshly roasted bread croutons.

Whip the cream lightly, then pour onto the soup using a spoon or sippy cup.

Insider tip:

Season the soup with a little soy sauce!

Recommends Chef Thomas Sixt

The step-by-step overview:

Put the tomatoes in the oven , place the tomatoes in an ovenproof bowl or roaster, marinate the tomatoes with a little olive oil, season with salt, pepper and sugar.

In the meantime sauté the diced shallots and diced garlic in a saucepan with olive oil for 20 minutes , caramelise slightly with a little sugar , then deglaze with white wine and let simmer gently .

Next, add the stewed tomatoes to the soup and bring to the boil. Allow the soup to simmer for 25 minutes , then mix the soup .

Whether you pass the soup through a sieve or not is a matter of taste.

Finally taste the soup, salt, pepper, sugar, cayenne pepper. A little bit of soy sauce conjures up an excellent taste in the soup. Then arrange and refine with extras such as bread cubes, parmesan or whipped cream.

4. What goes well with Italian Tomato Soup

Here are some additions that go well with tomato soup:

Crunchy bread cubes:
Cut white or black bread into slices and 1 cm cubes and toast in a pan with butter and olive oil. Seasoned with salt, pepper, thyme and garlic, serve these crispy bread cubes with the soup.

Basil chips:
Fry some basil leaves in hot vegetable oil. Be careful, the fat splatters, so put the lid on at the beginning. Place fried basil leaves on kitchen paper and season with salt. Place the basil leaves decoratively on top of the soup just before serving.

Grated cheese or cheese cubes:
A light sheep’s cheese, cut into cubes or grated hard cheese such as Parmesan, Pecorin or mountain cheese goes well with the tomato soup.

Fresh herbs:
Chervil, marjoram, oregano, thyme, parsley, wild garlic, basil, lovage… dare to try new herbs with tomato soup.
