Why Gluten-Free Tomato Soup?

Traditional tomato soup recipes often use flour as a thickening agent. This recipe skips the flour and uses a blend of pureed vegetables and a touch of cream (or coconut milk for a dairy-free option) to achieve a velvety smooth texture. This makes it naturally gluten-free and suitable for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

Ingredients You’ll Need:

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
• 4 cups gluten-free vegetable broth (check label to ensure it’s gluten-free)
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup heavy cream or full-fat coconut milk (optional, for extra creaminess)

Instructions:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth. Stir in the basil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
4. Bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
5. Carefully transfer the soup to a blender (or use an immersion blender) and blend until smooth.
6. Return the soup to the pot. If desired, stir in the heavy cream or coconut milk. Heat through gently.
7. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
8. Serve hot with your favorite gluten-free toppings, such as gluten-free croutons, fresh basil, or a dollop of sour cream.

Tips and Variations:

• For a richer flavor, roast the tomatoes and garlic before adding them to the soup.
• Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
• Use fresh herbs instead of dried for a brighter flavor.
• Garnish with a swirl of pesto or a drizzle of olive oil.
