Categories     Clear Soup

Time 12h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 lbs tomatoes
1 bunch fresh basil leaf
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Chop the tomatoes (large dice) and rough chop the basil; place all the ingredients into a blender, in batches, and process only a few seconds so that you get a coarse chop, not a pulp.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Place all the ingredients into a cheesecloth bag that you fashion, and suspend over a bowl for 6 hours or overnight; discard the first few red drops, then the liquid will be clear. Do not squeeze the bag or you will color the liquid.
  • Spoon into individual serving bowls and garnish as desired.
