Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lbs red heirloom or beefsteak tomatoes
  • 1 9 ounce cucumber (peeled, plus more diced for garnish)
  • 1 orange bell pepper (seeded and cored, plus more diced for garnish)
  • ½ shallot
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 slice sourdough bread (about 1 ounce)
  • micro greens (or fresh basil, optional topping)

Method
 

  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil and quickly dunk the tomatoes for about 40 seconds until their skins start to loosen, then peel them off.
  2. Cut the tomatoes, pepper, and cucumber into large pieces and add them to a blender along with the shallot, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and salt; blend until completely smooth.
  3. Pour the blended mixture into serving glasses or bowls and chill in the fridge for 3 to 4 hours to let the flavors develop.
  4. Cut the sourdough bread into small cubes and toast them in a pan with a little olive oil over medium heat until they turn golden and crispy, then sprinkle with salt.
  5. Ladle the chilled soup into bowls, drizzle with olive oil, top with homemade croutons, micro greens, and some diced cucumber or bell pepper for a fresh crunch.

Notes

  • Yields about 5 cups of soup. For best flavor, prepare ahead and refrigerate overnight. Homemade croutons add delightful texture but can be omitted for a gluten-free option.
