Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 red bell peppers
4 large tomatoes - peeled, seeded and chopped
1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons paprika
⅛ teaspoon white sugar
6 cups chicken broth
salt and pepper to taste
1 pinch ground cayenne pepper
1 dash hot pepper sauce
2 tablespoons butter
1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Roast peppers: rub oil on peppers and put them under the broiler until blackened, turn to get all sides. Put into paper bag and seal. Let rest for 15 minutes, then peel will come right off and core and seeds will fall out. Chop peppers. Reserve one chopped pepper; set aside.
  • Heat olive oil over moderate heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft but not brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato, bell peppers (except reserved), thyme, paprika, and sugar. Cook over medium-low heat until all the tomato juices have evaporated, about 25 minutes.
  • Stir in chicken stock, salt and pepper, cayenne pepper, and hot sauce (if using). Bring to boiling, lower heat, and simmer, partially covered, for 25 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • Strain soup, reserving broth. Place solids in food processor or blender, and process until fairly smooth. Add puree back into broth.
  • Melt butter and stir in the flour, cook for 1 minute. Stirring slowly, add the broth/vegetable mixture. Add reserved chopped pepper and bring to boiling. Lower heat and simmer 10 minutes.
  • Ladle into bowls and add 1 tablespoon of sour cream to each bowl. For a lighter soup, this is also delicious without the sour cream.

PURéED TOMATO AND RED PEPPER SOUP



Puréed Tomato and Red Pepper Soup image

I noticed that the most popular boxed soup at my supermarket is a tomato and red pepper soup, so I decided to come up with my own version.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, soups and stews, appetizer, main course, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 red bell peppers, roasted
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup diced celery
Salt to taste
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 28-ounce can chopped tomatoes with juice
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 sprigs fresh basil
Pinch of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon sugar (optional)
1 1/2 quarts vegetable stock or water
1/4 cup rice, preferably a medium-grain rice like arborio
Freshly ground pepper
Garlic croutons (toast thin slices of bread, rub with a cut clove of garlic, and cut into squares)
Freshly grated Parmesan
Slivered fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Roast the peppers as directed, allow to cool in a covered bowl, then peel, seed and dice. Set aside.
  • Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes, and add the carrot and celery and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and fragrant, about 5 more minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Add the tomatoes with their liquid, the tomato paste, basil sprigs, cinnamon, sugar if using, and salt to taste. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have cooked down slightly and smell fragrant, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the diced roasted peppers, the stock or water, rice, and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes, stirring from time to time. Season with freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust salt. Remove the basil sprigs.
  • Using a hand blender, purée the soup, or use a blender and purée in batches, being careful to pull a dish towel down over the top and not to cover tightly with the blender lid, then return to the pot and heat through. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve topped with croutons, Parmesan cheese, and/or slivered basil.

ROASTED RED PEPPER AND TOMATO SOUP



Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup image

This is a nice robust and colorful soup - packs a punch and yet has a great taste - nothing better than roasted red peppers and roasted tomatoes.

Provided by Ravenseyes

Categories     Peppers

Time 2h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 large red peppers (approximately 1 1/2 - 2 lbs)
3 lbs tomatoes (plum is preferable)
8 cups chicken stock
3 tablespoons garlic (more or less for your taste)
1 teaspoon sun-dried tomato paste
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup onion (shallots or red onion finely chopped)
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste or omit)
1 cup cream (optional)
1 teaspoon salt (adjust to your taste)
1 teaspoon pepper (fresh ground adjust to taste)

Steps:

  • Pre heat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Line 1 cookie sheet with tin foil - wash and cut tomatoes in half, arrange cut side down on cookie sheet, drizzle generously with good extra virgin olive oil, course, kosher or sea salt and a touch of ground pepper - bake until tomato peels have split and developed a nice caramelized texture. Approximately 45 - 60 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool, remove tomato skins.
  • While the tomatoes are caramelizing in the oven take your red peppers and blacken them over an open gas flame or in the case you do not have gas this can also be accomplished over an electric element simply by allowing the pepper contact with the heating coil till it blackens, or you could also do this on a gas grill. Place blackened peppers in a brown paper bag and allow to cool - I always make sure I have a plastic bag on the outside as the juices from the peppers will soak through as they cool. Once cooled remove skins, tops, ribs and seeds. Do not wash.
  • In a large soup pot add 1 tbsp olive oil add onions, garlic and sauté till onions appear clear. Add chicken stock, white wine, tomato paste, basil, tomatoes and peppers. Allow to cook for approximately 30 minutes. If you have a hand held blender, puree until a creamy texture is accomplished, or you can do this in a blender a few cups at a time being very careful not to over crowd the blender as the top will pop off with the heat. Return the pureed mixture back to the pot add pepper flakes and reduce over medium heat for 10 minutes - if desired add cream and serve!

Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup with Smoky Caprese Panini image

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large red bell peppers
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 small carrot, peeled and chopped
2 small celery stalks, chopped
1 onion, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (28-ounce) can or 2 (15-ounce) cans fire roasted diced tomatoes
2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1-pound ball freshly smoked mozzarella, cut into 16 thin slices
1 large ripe tomato, cut into 8 thin slices
8 slices Tuscan bread
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Char the peppers on all sides over an open flame on a gas stovetop or under a hot broiler (with the oven door cracked to avoid steam buildup in the oven). Put the charred peppers in a bowl, cover, and let them rest until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a soup pot. Add the garlic, carrot, celery, and onions to the pot and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 10 minutes, then put them into a food processor with the diced tomatoes. Seed and peel the peppers and add them to the processor. Puree the mixture until smooth, then pour it into soup pot and stir in the stock.
  • Heat a panini press or a large heavy skillet. Make sandwiches using 2 slices of cheese and 2 slices of ripe tomato on 4 of the bread slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste, and top with some torn basil. Cover with the remaining 4 slices of bread and add them to the panini press or hot skillet. If using a skillet, top with a second smaller pan and weight it down with heavy cans. Press the sandwiches to toast and melt the cheese, a few minutes on each side or 5 minutes in a hot press.
  • Serve the soup in bowls with the Panini alongside.

Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have cooked down slightly and smell fragrant, about 10 minutes. 3. Add the diced roasted peppers, the stock or water, rice, and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes, stirring from time to time. Season with freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust salt. Remove the basil sprigs. 4. Using a hand blender, purée the soup, or use a blender and purée in batches, being careful to pull a dish towel down over the top and not to cover tightly with the blender lid, then return to the pot and heat through. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve topped with croutons, Parmesan cheese, and/or slivered basil.
