It's a cold soup. It's also almost raw ! Well at least 2 of the 3 key ingredients are raw. Summer days bring in much exhaustion and a general loss of appetite. Fluids are downed by the litres. But soup is one thing we don't want to drink. However an easy and refreshing solution to that is cold soups.
I am constantly updating my repertoire with more season specific dishes using seasonal produce , as much as possible.
Tried this soup. Tasted gorgeous cold and the hubby , with his conservative tastes , enjoyed it hot.
Just 3 main ingredients , serves 4
1 cup finely grated carrot
1/2 cup baked beans with the tomato sauce it is canned in.
2 large , firm , red tomatoes peeled and development seeded.
Salt , pepper , tobacco sauce to taste.
Puree the vegetables along with the beans. Thin down the soup to your preferred consistency. Season with salt , pepper and a dash of tabasco sauce.
If you prefer it cold , just boil it on a low flame for about 3-5 minutes.
Serve it with a crisp salad and cold meats , or with crusty bread and an olive oil +balsamic vinegar dip.
