Loved this!! Just made a couple of minor tweaks. Instead of chardonnay, I added a cup and a half of vodka (the cheap stuff will do, no one will ever know, chilled for 2 hours, garnished with celery stalk and lime wedge. Fantastic as an appetizer or double your portion for a whole meal!
This soup is pretty good. I think if I make it again, I will use chicken stock instead. It is a bit strong. When I make Sandra’s Roasted Tomato soup, I usually lap up a couple of bowls. I had to eat this one more slowly, not because it didn’t taste good, but because it was so strong. If you want a milder soup, go for her Roasted Tomato soup.
I agree with the previous posts. I added 2 cups chicken stock instead of Chardonnay and I also added more onions and seasonings and salt and pepper. Also I added some flour to thicken it up a bit. I served with grilled cheese sandwiches and it was a big hit!
Pretty one dimensional. Don’t think Chardonnay was a good wine choice here. Don’t know how much a different one would have helped.
This is just tomatoes and wine with some seasonings. There was nothing to cut through the acidity of the tomatoes. Maybe it would be good as a sauce base but not for a whole bowl of soup.
Not much flavor
