OH Yeah! A throwback on a Sunday! This was one of the first-ever non-Indian recipe that I had tried making. Surprisingly, it turned out amazing. Tomato Bisque was inspired by nonother than Giada De Laurentiis from Food Network. Yes, food network and its sister channels have been a source of my inspiration to learn new food recipes and cooking in general. The original recipe called for carrots, celery, half-half, etc. of course, I didn’t have any of that handy in the house. So, I improvised as I started making it. A can of crushed tomatoes, Italian seasonings, red chili flakes, a little bit of ginger, black pepper, salt, sugar, and instead of heavy cream added a little bit of whole milk to get the creaminess. Oh, I also added penne pasta as a little bit of substance and Voila! Warm, hearty, and filling soup/bisque.
