Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 large red local heirloom tomatoes, cored and diced
1 teaspoon minced shallot
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 cup torn basil leaves
1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
1/2 pint local heirloom cherry tomatoes, cut in half
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons small basil leaves
1/2 cup small croutons
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the tomatoes, shallot, garlic, torn basil leaves, cracked pepper and a large pinch of sea salt into a blender container and pulse until the mixture becomes smooth. Place a strainer lined with cheesecloth over a bowl and pour the soup into the cheesecloth and tie the bundle closed. Suspend the puree over the bowl and let sit until completely drained. The tomato water can be drained overnight in the refrigerator. Season the cherry tomatoes with salt and black pepper and divide the tomatoes between the 4 bowls. Drizzle the olive oil over the cherry tomatoes and garnish with basil leaves and croutons. Pour the chilled tomato consommé over the garnish and serve immediately.
