Ingredients

2 kg beef tomatoes
2 shallots
1 garlic bulb
5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 handful fresh basil
50 g vegan Parmesan alternative
400 ml still water
6 slices vegan baguette
1 pinch table salt
1 tsp brown cane sugar

Preparation

1
Score the tomatoes crosswise, place them in a bowl, and pour hot water over them. Let them sit for about 5 minutes, then peel off the skin.
2
Deseed the peeled tomatoes (quarter them and cut out or squeeze out the seeds). Process the pulp into a coarse puree in a food processor.
3
Peel and finely chop the shallots and garlic.

Instructions

1
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the shallots until translucent. Add the garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
2
Add the tomato puree and half of the picked basil to the pan. Pour in water.
3
Slice the baguette into approximately 4 mm thin slices, distribute them over the soup, and close the lid. Let everything simmer for about 20 minutes.
4
Finally, add the vegan Parmesan alternative, the remaining basil, and salt and sugar to taste. Serve hot.

Tip

For a more intense aroma, you can roast the tomatoes in the oven before pureeing them.

Ein interessanter kulinarischer Tipp: Rösten Sie die Tomaten vor dem Pürieren im Ofen, um ein noch tieferes Aroma zu erzielen. Servieren Sie die Suppe mit einem Spritzer Olivenöl und frischem Basilikum.
