Tomato harvest, what to do? Tomato soup for dinner! 3½ pounds of Principe Borghese and a couple of Brandywines. |
Chop up one onion and smash 6 cloves of garlic. |
Saute onions & garlic until soft. |
Add tomatoes, smash so their skins break. |
Let simmer for about an hour. |
Into the "witch's hat"! |
Put through food mill to remove seeds and skins |
Don't forget to scrape all the thick goodness from the outside! |
If it's thick enough for you now ... EAT! If not, continue reading ... |
Melt ½ cup of butter |
Whisk in ½ cup of flour until it's thick ... |
continue cooking while constantly whisking for a couple minutes so the flour cooks and doesn't taste "floury" |
Quickly stir in a ladle full of the soup, keep stirring! Add a few ladles until it's no longer thick, then add to the soup while constantly whisking! |
DONE! |
Enjoy with a grilled cheese sandwich! |
