A classic recipe

I first shared a recipe for tomato soup back in 2015. I remember searching for the recipe on the blog and being surprised when I couldn’t find it! It’s a recipe I make all the time and so it seemed mad that it hadn’t yet found its way on to the site. Roasted tomato soup is a classic recipe that everyone should have in their repertoire (including Supper in the Suburbs!)

A good quality tomato soup can be made from just 4 ingredients (seasoning excluded): tomatoes; garlic; olive oil; and vegetable stock. The only problem is finding tomatoes worthy enough of making it into the soup!

Let’s talk tomatoes

You can now buy a wide range tomato varieties, all year round thanks to supermarket imports and tomato growers in the UK using green houses and other clever technologies to make sure tomatoes are always in stock.

Too often though, the supermarket varieties are watery and bland. I’ve been spoilt in years gone as both my Dad and Jon’s Dad have grown their own tomatoes. If it’s one thing I’ve learnt from watching them grow it’s that the more sunshine, the more taste. Which just so happens to be the motto of Isle of Wight tomatoes from The Tomato Stall.

I first came across The Tomato Stall at Borough Market. They sell vine ripened tomatoes in all shapes, sizes and colours. The one thing they all have in common is that they are just packed full of flavour. Which means they are perfect for my Easy Roasted Tomato Soup.

You can find a stockist of Isle of Wight tomatoes here.

If you want to grow your own tomatoes for this tasty yet simple soup recipe, you will need to get planting soon. The British tomato season runs from June to October – take note!

The recipe

To get the most out of the tomatoes it’s important to roast them with a drizzle of olive oil, plenty of salt and pepper and garlic. Roasting the tomatoes low and slow brings out the natural sweetness in the tomatoes. I like to leave it until the skins have started to shrivel and catch round the edges.

The soup is super creamy not thanks to the addition of dairy, but because I make my soups in my Vitamix blender. It means you can get a perfect, velvety smooth soup even with the tomato skin and pips thrown in.
