This delicious, refreshing and comforting vegan tomato soup is topped with a easy cheesy white sauce, completely homemade.
Hello guys, today I’m going to show you how to make a simple and refreshing tomato soup with extra character.
I decided to keep this recipe as simple as possible to really showcase the flavours of the tomatoes that happen to be fully in season now.
To make a good tomato soup there are no fixed rules really.
Ideally you want to pick tomatoes that are fresh and as juicy as possible, so and overall rule would be: the juicier, the better.
Although this can be a good guideline, I don’t like to narrow my choices so strictly. I, in fact, decided to make this soup with the tomatoes that I like the most: cherry and salad tomatoes.
Their rich flavour, so intense and fresh at the same time, it is nicely balanced with a cheesy vegan sauce, as well simple and quick to make.
Overall, you’ll only require a bunch of good and pretty cheap ingredients to make one of the best comfort foods on earth!
