Tips:

  • Choose ripe and flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the flavor of your soup. Look for ripe, juicy tomatoes that are free of blemishes.
  • Roast the tomatoes before blending: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives the soup a smoky depth of flavor. You can roast the tomatoes in the oven or on the stovetop.
  • Use a variety of salsas: Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of salsas. You can use a mild salsa for a more subtle flavor, or a spicy salsa for a more robust soup.
  • Add some heat: If you like your soup spicy, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. You can also add some chopped jalapeños or serrano peppers.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the soup. You can also garnish with other herbs, such as parsley or basil.
