Creamy Tomato Soup (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)

Creamy tomato soup is an ultimate comfort food. Combine it with fermented sourdough or gluten-free white dinner rolls and you’ve got yourself a great meal!

Creamy Tomato Soup (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)

Tomatoes are a great source of vitamin C, folate, potassium, fiber, and the antioxidant lycopene. The shallots offer a nice source of sulphur, and the butter and cream offer omega-3s, healthy saturated fats, and vitamin A (aka retinol).

I’m often asked if someone with thyroid disease should avoid nightshades. In general, if someone has arthritis or joint pain, then it’s best to avoid nightshades. If you don’t have those issues, then nightshades can be a part of a thyroid-healing diet.

This creamy tomato soup recipe has an extra step of roasting the tomatoes, which helps give it a deep, slightly sweet flavor. It’s definitely worth the extra time!

Adapted slightly from Cook’s Illustrated.

Ingredients

  • 2 (28 ounce) cans or jars whole tomatoes, drained, 3 cups of juice reserved
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons organic whole cane sugar or sucanat
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (or 3 tablespoons ghee or palm shortening for dairy-free)
  • 4 shallots, minced
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons sprouted whole wheat flour or 1 tablespoon arrowroot
  • 1 3/4 cups chicken broth or meat stock (homemade preferred)
  • 1/2 cup heavy raw cream (or coconut milk for dairy-free option)
  • 2 tablespoons brandy (optional, but does make a difference in the flavor!)
  • 2 teaspoons Grey Celtic sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spread tomatoes in a single layer on a large 13 x 9 baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with whole cane sugar. Roast for 30 minutes, or until all juice has evaporated. Set aside.
  2. Heat butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add shallots and tomato paste and saute until shallots are soft, about 5 minutes. Add flour (or arrowroot) and stir constantly for about 30 seconds until combined. Whisking constantly, add chicken stock and reserved tomato juice then add roasted tomatoes. Bring to a boil and then cover pot and lower heat to a simmer. Let simmer for 10 minutes. Remove lid and puree soup using a hand immersion blender or puree in batches in a blender. Stir in cream and heat over low heat for 2-3 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, stir in brandy, and sea salt. Add more sea salt to taste, if needed.

    Beautiful soup. We've been listening a lot to the news of Haiti on the radio with the kids while we're in the car, and it's honestly hard for all of us to comprehend. But it definitely makes us grateful for our safety and health.

    Sometimes you just want to turn the TV off and not look at the disaster and be thankful that you have a warm bed and vast amounts of water at your disposal. But you can't turn off your mind or heart that easy...a donation was made to the Red Cross.

    we have given to world vision. we support 2 children monthly through them (neither in Haiti) but i knew world vision had people on the ground in Haiti (400 WV workers) and knew my money would be put to good use immediately. i have loved the idea of the text program the red cross program has done. what an easy way to donate! i too, wish i could give physical comfort to those poor people. if any of them make their way to abilene, i am going to open my home to them however i can. i don't know if that will happen but i'm ready if they want to come.

    Soup looks delicious! I wanted to tell you about a T-shirt I bought with "Help Haiti Rise" on the front. !00% of profits go to the non-profit org, Partners in Health. It is a cute Tee and a visual reminder to pray...donate...do what you can with what you've got! You can purchase at frettoprints.comGod bless you! leah

    Beautiful! Thanks for the recipe and the wonderful meaning and intention behind the help to those in need! Our girl scout troops are working extra hard to earn money to contribute to the needs in Haiti and around the world. It's inspiring to hear 5 - 8 year olds tell YOU who needs help and why. I will be altering the recipe to be gluten free but I will let you know how it goes!

    Is there a Carrie Vitt fan club? I'm joining. I just made this- my fifth recipe of yours to date- and my family is obsessed. Thank you so much!! The only tomato soup I've ever really liked is the creamy tomato at La Madeleine bakery in DC, and this was even BETTER. Love. And we had it with your waldorf salad over arugula and a side of fresh whole wheat bread, still warm from the bread maker. Heaven.
