Dueling Tomatoes Soup with Camembert Cream
MAKES 6 SERVINGS
Cherry tomatoes are wonderfully sweet, as are yellow tomatoes, which are lower in acid. When served together in one bowl, they are both colorful and make a delicious soup with the bold flavor of a meal.
Ingredients
- ½ cup Castello Danish Camembert
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 12 cups cherry or grape tomatoes
- 12 cups yellow plum tomatoes
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- pinch of sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
1. Blend the cheese and heavy cream together and set aside.
2. Cut cherry tomatoes in half and place into a mixing bowl.
3. Cut plum tomatoes in half and place in a second bowl. Divide the chicken broth, vinegar and olive oil between the two bowls. Add a pinch of sugar and season both bowl with salt and pepper. Sugar is added as a means to counteract the acidity of the tomatoes.
4. Puree the tomatoes, one color at a time, in a food processor.
5. To serve, ladle each soup into bowls equally, balancing the two colors. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
