Soup is great, don’t you think? There are endless possibilities and flavours which can be made into soup. On this occasion I have created a rich, thick and smooth tomato soup, which is also gluten free and vegetarian. I have served my soup with shredded basil and of course parmesan shavings, but feel free to give this dish your own personal flare!
