Why I Love This Recipe

To create this satisfying soup, plum tomatoes are smoked on a stovetop smoker, a simple process that infuses them with deep, rich flavor. Pair the soup with our Cheddar Cheese Panini (see related recipe at right) for a comforting lunch or supper.

Ingredients You'll Need

2 tsp. apple smoking chips
1 lb. plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
6 Tbs. olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
6 slices country-style bread, each
1 inch thick and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 yellow onion, diced
1/2 tsp. sweet paprika
1/3 cup sherry
1/3 cup fresh orange juice
4 cups chicken stock
2 cans (each 14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes with juices
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup sour cream


Directions

Heat a stovetop smoker on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Put the smoking chips in the bottom of the smoking pan, reduce the heat to medium-low and place the rack in the smoker.


In a bowl, stir together the tomatoes, 1 Tbs. of the olive oil, salt and pepper. Place the tomatoes, cut sides up, on the smoker rack. Cover and smoke for 15 minutes. Transfer the tomatoes to a bowl and let cool, then remove and discard the skins.


Preheat an oven to 350°F.


In a bowl, stir together the bread cubes, 3 Tbs. of the oil, salt and pepper. Spread the bread cubes out on a baking sheet and bake until golden, about 10 minutes. Set the croutons aside.


In a soup pot over medium heat, warm the remaining 2 Tbs. oil. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the paprika and cook for 2 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the sherry and orange juice, and cook until reduced to 3 Tbs., about 10 minutes. Add the smoked tomatoes, the stock, canned tomatoes with juices and cayenne. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes.


Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Pass the soup through a chinois into a clean pot, pressing firmly on the solids. Set the pot over low heat, add the croutons and let stand for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Using the immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper.


Ladle the soup into warmed bowls, and garnish with the parsley and sour cream. Serve immediately. Serves 6.
