Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 teaspoons sweet smoked paprika, preferably pimentón de la Vera
3 1/2 pounds tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup water
1 thyme sprig
1 bay leaf
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
Eight 1/4-inch-thick baguette slices, cut on the bias
2 ounces Gruyère cheese, coarsely grated (3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • 1.In a soup pot, melt the butter in the olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook over moderately high heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the paprika and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes, water, thyme sprig and bay leaf, season with salt and pepper and bring the tomato mixture to a boil. Cover and simmer over moderate heat until the tomatoes break down, about 15 minutes. Discard the thyme sprig and bay leaf. 2.Preheat the broiler. In a blender, puree the soup in batches until smooth. Strain the soup back into the pot, pressing on the solids to extract as much soup as possible. Stir the cream into the soup and season with salt and pepper. 3.Meanwhile, place the baguette slices on a baking sheet. Broil 6 inches from the heat until lightly toasted on both sides, about 2 minutes total. Top the toasts with the Gruyère and broil for about 30 seconds, until the cheese is bubbly. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve with the Gruyère toasts.

This soup is delicious! The smoky flavor is really unique and the Gruyere toasts are the perfect accompaniment. I will definitely be making this soup again.

This soup was just okay. The flavor was good, but the texture was a little too thick for my taste. I also found the Gruyere toasts to be a bit too rich. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this soup.

I was excited to try this soup, but I was disappointed. The flavor was bland and the Gruyere toasts were too salty. I won't be making this soup again.
