Cut the tomatoes in half and put the halves, cut side up, on a baking sheet. Broil until the tomatoes are soft and the edges are starting to turn brown. This took me about 30 minutes. When it was soft but still a little dark, I took it out and set the oven to gas mark 5.

Method

The cheese adds a special touch to this soup, which makes it go from an everyday soup to a festive soup.Served with crispy, homemade croutons and a dash of sour cream, this light soup becomes a highlight. Tips for a good result Use a heavy pestle and mortar to crush the coriander seeds. You can also use ground coriander, but the whole seeds tend to have more flavor. Put into the pot. Add a few drops of creme fraiche, Greek yogurt, sour cream, or creme fraiche that has been thinned with a little milk. To enhance the soup's taste, roast the vegetables by halving the onions, tomatoes, and peppers, then laying them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Put on the pan on the stove and bring to the boil. At this point, I put my pan in the bottom (simmering) oven of my Aga and it will sit there until I’m ready to put the soup in the blender. You can get the same effect from a conventional oven on a very low light (ideal if you’re out at work all day) or in a slow cooker. You only need to cook the vegetables until they’re soft so even if you’re in a bit of a hurry, it will only take about 20 minutes to make your soup if you don’t have time to leave the pan.

In general, the bigger the courgette (zucchine) the more bitterness it holds. So you better choose smaller ones. Cut the pumpkin and onions into chunks and halve the head of garlic. Place on a baking try and roast in the middle of the oven at 200c for 30 minutes. New Covent Garden Soup Co. have celebrated this year’s summer by bringing out a great new range of soups. But, even better than that, they invited me to come and try them. To make the basil puree, pound the basil leaves with salt in a pestle and mortar until they are smooth. Add the olive oil and vinegar and stir well. Put a heaping teaspoon of the puree on top of the soup and eat it with bread and other things. It's delicious!

Add enough of creamy brie cheese to your soup for a rich and delicious flavour. If you do not like the slightly bitter taste or the brie’s rind, remove it before adding to the soup. Flavor: Mix in basil, stems and all, honey, and seasonings. Cover and cook for 5 more minutes. Take the basil out before you serve. First of all I tried the Vintage Cheddar & Piccalilli flavour which is a British Ploughman’s in a bowl of soup featuring cheese, piccalilli, small chunks of vegetable and a hint of mustard. Cut up the new coriander. Add the chopped stalks and half of the leaves to the pot. Simmer for another 10 minutes, or until the carrot and potato are soft. Slater finishes his soup with toasted cumin seeds, olive oil and microgreens, Tovey tops his with chopped parsley and serves croutons on the side, and Singh-Watson gives a whole list of garnish suggestions that, in addition to some of the above, includes toasted almonds, orange flower water, walnut, hazelnut and sesame oil and “one heaped teaspoon of ground mixed Moroccan spices, such as caraway and cumin with a little hot chilli”. If you’re short of time, or would just prefer to use that time otherwise (ie, eating the soup), you could easily just sprinkle chopped fresh coriander on top. My bright, green coriander puree is not just for show, however – dissolved in oil, the flavour of the herb is richer, and more intense, than my teenage self could ever dream of.Add the coconut milk and use a hand blender or a regular blender to puree the soup until it is as smooth as silk. (Removing half of the jalapeo before puréeing will make it less spicy.)

Next up were the cold soups. I’m a ‘COLD SOUPS ARE WRONG’ kind of girl but I’m always up for a challenge, especially a soupy one and so I gave them a go. I should point out that the following two soups don’t have to be eaten cold, they can also be heated up. I went along with my friend Helen (who blogged about the day here) and when we got there I was asked which soups I’d like to try. I said ‘any as long as they’re vegetarian’ and was told that they all were. Whoop. Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook it for about 5 minutes, until it becomes soft. Put in the garlic and cook for one more minute. Small daughter absolutely loves this soup, it’s a close second to leek and potato for her. I have to say that I was a bit surprised that she took to it the way that she did when I first made it – I expected a bit more resistance to a soup other than leek and potato – but it’s a pleasant green colour, slightly creamy from the Brie and is actually just a very nice soup so there’s nothing for her not to like!

In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil with the garlic and herbs. when it's hot, add the other vegetables. cook for a few minutes, stirring every now and then, until the vegetables start to soften. Put these vegetables on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven until they are soft. I spent about 40 minutes doing it. Cut your tomatoes into small pieces and set them aside. Oil should be heated in a medium pot on medium to high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is soft and the garlic smells good. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and keep cooking, uncovered, for about 10 minutes, or until the tomatoes have mostly broken down.
