TOMATO CILANTRO SOUP



Tomato Cilantro Soup image

Found this in the paper today and wanted to post it for Zaar World Tour 2006. It sounded absolutely fantastic and I finally tried it myself. Was I right! Homemade tomato soup with 10x the taste! I served with crusty ciabatta bread for dipping. I added vegetable stock instead of regular water because a good stock is always the basis for the best soups. Lighten up on salt (if you use stock) and the cumin if you want. I only added 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, and no cayenne. I used 1 large bunch of cilantro. Did not taste overly of cilantro once I took the bunch out. Adapted from "Mediterranean Light" by Martha Rose Shulman. I classified this as either a Greek or Italian recipe:D

Yield Makes 4 servings or about 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 small onion, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Scant 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (14- to 16-ounce) can whole tomatoes in juice, drained and juices reserved
1 3/4 cups chicken broth (14 fluid ounces)
2 teaspoons honey
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, or to taste
Garnish: lemon slices

Steps:

  • Cook onion in oil with spices in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and begins to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Coarsely chop tomatoes and add to onion mixture with reserved juices, broth, honey, 1 tablespoon parsley, and 1 tablespoon cilantro, then bring to a boil. Transfer soup to a metal bowl set in a larger bowl of ice and cold water. Cool soup, stirring occasionally, until cold, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste, then stir in remaining parsley and cilantro.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will ensure that your soup has the best possible flavor. If you can, use heirloom tomatoes, as they tend to be more flavorful than other varieties.
  • Don't overcook the tomatoes. Overcooked tomatoes will lose their flavor and become mushy. Simmer them gently until they are just softened.
  • Use fresh cilantro. Fresh cilantro has a much more intense flavor than dried cilantro. If you can't find fresh cilantro, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried cilantro per tablespoon of fresh cilantro.
  • Add some heat. If you like spicy food, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few drops of Sriracha sauce to the soup. You can also garnish the soup with a few slices of jalapeƱo pepper.
  • Serve the soup chilled. Cold tomato-cilantro soup is a refreshing and flavorful summer meal. You can serve it as a starter, a main course, or a snack.

Conclusion:

Cold tomato-cilantro soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for summer. With its fresh, flavorful ingredients, this soup is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and delicious meal, give this cold tomato-cilantro soup a try.
