This creamy tomato soup is a comforting classic reimagined with plant-based ingredients. The secret to its luxurious texture lies in pureed potatoes, which thicken the broth naturally without heavy cream. Aromatics like onion, celery, and mushrooms build a deep savory base, while crushed tomatoes provide bright acidity. A splash of soy milk adds richness, and barley malt offers a subtle sweetness that balances the acidity. Perfect for chilly evenings, this soup pairs wonderfully with crusty bread or a simple green salad. It’s quick to make, vegan-friendly, and packed with warm, home-cooked flavor that feels indulgent yet wholesome.

Description

This creamy tomato soup is a comforting classic reimagined with plant-based ingredients. The secret to its luxurious texture lies in pureed potatoes, which thicken the broth naturally without heavy cream. Aromatics like onion, celery, and mushrooms build a deep savory base, while crushed tomatoes provide bright acidity. A splash of soy milk adds richness, and barley malt offers a subtle sweetness that balances the acidity.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel the potatoes and boil them in water until tender. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
  2. Puree the cooked potatoes with the reserved 1 cup of cooking liquid until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion, celery, and mushrooms.
  4. Sauté the vegetables until the onions are transparent and the mushrooms have released their moisture.
  5. Add 1 cup of water to the pot and simmer until the vegetables are tender.
  6. Stir in the pureed potato mixture, crushed tomatoes, soy sauce, barley malt, soy milk, dried basil, salt, and pepper.
  7. Bring the soup to a gentle simmer. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  8. Do not let the soup boil vigorously, as this may cause the soy milk to curdle.
  9. Turn off the heat and let the soup cool slightly before serving. Adjust seasoning if needed.
