- 1 cup raw cashews
- 2 cup boiling-hot water (for soaking)
- 1 cup cold water
Fresh Tomato Soup
- 1½ cup vegetable stock
- 2 TBSP fresh thyme leaves (or 1 TBSP dried)
- ½ TBSP fresh oregano (or 2 tsp dried)
- 1 TBSP tomato paste
- 2 TBSP white miso paste
- 1 can fire-roasted tomatoes (14.5 ounces or 411 grams)
- ½ cup spinach
- ¼ inch red onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 TBSP flax meal
- 2 ounces sun-dried tomatoes (in oil) (drained)
- 1 med celery stalk (quartered, include leaves)
- 1 med carrot (quartered)
- 2 roma tomatos (stemmed and quartered)
- ½ inch lemon
Instructions
Make cashew cream
- Put the cashews in a small bowl and cover with 3 cups of boiling hot water. Let soak for at least one hour
- Drain the cashews and rinse well. Place in a blender. Add the cold water. Blend on high speed for 90 seconds. Pour into a container and set aside.
Make the soup
- Add all the remaining ingredients into the blender in the order listed. Blend on high speed until smooth.
- Heat the soup on the stove in a a sauce pan. If you are using a VitaMix blender, blend for 6 1/2 minutes or until the soup is hot.
- Remove from the heat and pour in the cashew cream.
Garnish and Serve
- Pour the soup into bowls. If you like garnish with fresh croutons and a sprig of fresh thyme or a pinch of flat-leaf parsley
Notes
With a high-speed blender this becomes a one-appliance meal. With a VitaMix or similar blender, the blender will heat your soup to boiling in about six minutes.
If you don’t have a Vitamix blender, just blend the soup and pour it out into a sauce pan and heat as normal.
Either way, this is a fresh and fantastic soup.
