What is fennel soup made of?

It’s made by gently cooking the fennel with a few common soup base ingredients (such as onion, garlic, and celery) before adding stock. This approach brings out the fennel’s delightful, sweetish, subtle aniseed flavor. In a soup, fennel is a great vegetable to include.

Do you remove seeds from tomatoes when making soup?

Keep the seeds if you’re mixing your tomatoes into a soup or sauce. They give your dinner a deeper, umami flavor by adding dimension to the dish. You won’t have to worry about them becoming stuck in your teeth once they’ve all been mashed together.

How to make roasted tomato and fennel soup?

Now that you have gathered all of your ingredients, it is time to make this recipe. Follow the instructions below.

For safety, if you don’t have a stick or immersion blender, you can use a blender to puree the roasted vegetables and liquid. To prevent the hot liquid from exploding, make sure the blender lid is properly ventilated.

Start by preheating the oven to 400 ℉ and lining a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat® baking mat. Then set aside.

On the prepared baking sheet, arrange the tomatoes, red peppers, fennel, carrots, shallots, and garlic in a single layer. Season with salt and black pepper to taste and drizzle with olive oil. Toss everything together and top with fresh thyme leaves.

Next, place the baking sheet in preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until vegetables are soft and faintly browned.

Then fill a large soup pot halfway with chicken stock and add the roasted vegetables and any juices from the baking sheet. Cook, stirring periodically, until heated and bubbling over medium heat. Remove the pan from the heat.

Blend the contents of the soup pot with an immersion blender until absolutely smooth. Just before serving, add the coconut milk and fresh basil. Enjoy!
