I had roasted red pepper soup in a sourdough bread bowl at a bakery and I wondered how I could cook it myself. It is the best soup for cold winter days. I served with yoghurt in the picture, but I also like to have it with gorgonzola.

Cooking Instructions

40 mins
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 355°F/180℃.

  2. 2

    Remove the stems and seeds from the peppers and cut into quarters. Place them on a tin foil lined baking sheet and bake for 20 mins or untill they get tender.

  3. 3

    Place the water in a pot. Add the chopped carrots, celery, onion, cauliflower, bay leaves, herbs of your choice and cook over medium hight heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 mins. Turn the heat down and simmer for 20 mins or until the veggies become tender.

  4. 4

    Remove the peppers from your oven and let them cool enough to handle. Chop them into pieces and add to your pan along with the tomatoes. Simmer for another 10 mins.

  5. 5

    I used canned tomatoes this time, but I will try with fresh tomatoes and bake by myself next time.

  6. 6

    Remove from heat and remove the bay leaf from the soup mix. Place in your blender or use a hand blender to blend until smooth. Taste and check for seasoning and serve while hot!

I'm Japanese living in the States. I have liked cooking since I was little because it's fun for me and I can learn new things sometimes. I'd like to share them with you here. I hope you enjoy.

This is the perfect soup to compliment a gourmet deli sandwich. Nice and thick with a smooth rich flavor.
