It's turning into Fall and to me that means sweaters, fires and hearty soups to warm you from the inside. Prior to learning I could not eat dairy, I loved a creamy tomato soup. It just has this comforting feeling and taste, so I embarked on recreating that feeling.
I started with boiling a full head of cauliflower until soft and tender. I strained it off and added it to my blender with organic chicken broth to create the thick creamy soup base.
Once I got the cauliflower to the desired consistency I started to incorporate the tomato flavours. I used a combination of organic tomato paste and fire roasted crushed tomatoes. The reason for both is that the paste would colour and flavour the cauliflower base and te fire roasted crushed tomatoes added that fire4 roasted flavour but gave some additional chunks to the soup that really enhanced the texture.
Once I incorporated the tomatoes its time to thin the soup out a bit. As you can see I ended up with quite a thick puree. That was not quite what I wanted soup wise. You can thin this out two ways, with more chicken broth or adding a nut milk. I opted for the nut milk to keep the creamy feeling to this soup.
I added nut milk little by little until I was happy with the consistency, and set aside.
I also enjoy tasty toppers to soup, this particular soup I thought would taste great with crispy fried garlic and basil. I cut up a few cloves of garlic into thin slices and fried them up in some avocado oil. You do want these to get crispy.
All done? Lets ladle out the soup and garnish! This will warm you up on a cold day! It was surprisingly filling and re-heated nicely the next day! What types of soup do you crave come Autumn?
