FAQS

  2. What are some good substitutions for ingredients in roasted tomato soup?

    If you don't have coconut cream, you can substitute it with cashew cream or a splash of almond milk for a lighter version. For the tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes if fresh ones are not available, but roasting fresh tomatoes adds a unique flavor. Additionally, if you prefer a milder soup, you can skip the chili flakes.

  5. What is the best cooking method for achieving rich flavors in roasted tomato soup?

    Roasting the tomatoes, onions, and garlic at a high temperature caramelizes their natural sugars, enhancing the flavors of the soup. Make sure to roast them until they are nicely caramelized and soft, which usually takes about 25-30 minutes at 200°C (400°F). This step is crucial for a rich and comforting roasted tomato soup.
