This cold tomato soup is so refreshing and ridiculously easy to make. Serve it as an appetizer or as a tasty summertime lunch.

Ingredients
- ½ cup basil packed, 20 grams, fresh leaves
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced, fresh
- 2 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
- 3 cups strained tomatoes or Cento canned tomato puree, Pomi brand
- 1 cup buttermilk low fat
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt or ½ teaspoon of any other salt, including Morton kosher salt, Diamond Crystal brand
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
Instructions
- Place the basil, garlic, and olive oil in your food processor bowl. Process into a paste.
- Add the tomatoes, buttermilk, salt, and pepper.
- Process until smooth and well incorporated, about 1 minute, stopping as needed to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula.
- Transfer the soup to a serving bowl, cover, and chill in the fridge for 2 hours, then serve.
Notes
- I highly recommend using either Pomi Strained Tomatoes or Cento tomato puree. If you use an American brand instead, taste the soup and see if you'd like to add a teaspoon of honey to counteract the tomatoes' acidity.
- If the tomatoes you use have no salt added, I recommend using 2 teaspoons of Diamond Crystal kosher salt or 1 teaspoon of any other salt.
- You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Make sure to stir them well before serving them. I don't recommend freezing this soup. Its texture won't survive freezing and thawing.
