This creamy tomato soup is delicious and has a twist - the addition of strong, black coffee. This is the perfect summer dish for using freshly picked tomatoes from the garden. Remember - the better the quality of the tomatoes, the better the taste of the soup.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 1 cup chopped onion

  • ½ cup chopped carrots

  • 2 stalks celery, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

  • 2 ½ cups chopped fresh tomatoes

  • 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce

  • ¾ cup strong brewed coffee

  • ¼ cup water

  • 1 teaspoon white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ground black pepper to taste

  • ⅓ cup heavy cream

Directions

  1. Melt the butter in a stock pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, carrots, celery, garlic, and parsley; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, coffee, water, sugar, salt, and pepper. Bring the soup to a boil and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes.

  2. Pour the hot soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Stir in the cream and heat until warm. Do not boil.
