Fall doesn\u2019t officially start until the end of the month, but our garden is already making the transition.  The cucumbers stopped producing after a cold snap last week, and the tomatoes are soon going to be good only for green tomato chutney.  Last week I cleared some beds and planted garlic, kale, and shallots to overwinter, and the lawn is starting to develop a checkerboard of fallen leaves.  This soup is the perfect blend of late summer\/early fall: loaded with ripe, garden tomatoes, but warming, easy, and full of flavor.  This is a really lazy soup because during the semester the weekends are the only time I can really cook with leisure.  I had about four pounds of beautiful heirloom tomatoes from our garden\u2013Valencias and Pineapple varieties.<\/p>\n\n\n

To keep this lazy I used dehydrated, chopped onion, as I don\u2019t like fresh onions in soup unless they are first cooked down in some olive oil.  If you want to use fresh onion just chop up about a cup, sweat it in some olive oil, and then toss it in the pot instead of the dried onion. I also left the skins on the tomatoes and just squeezed out around half of the seeds.  I wanted easy, and since I blended the soup at the end the texture was great.  If you want a silky-smooth soup you can remove all of the seeds and peels before cooking.  I know I have said this numerous times, but an immersion blender is your friend.  It\u2019s a seriously easy way to turn soups and sauces into something rich and lush in texture\u2013plus they are a snap to clean up.<\/p>\n\n\n

Really simple, with lots of flavor.  I will be sad to see the tomatoes go.<\/p>\n\n\n

    • Toss all of the ingredients in your slow cooker and set it on high. Cook for 3 1\/2 to 4 hours, then carefully blend the hot soup to the texture you prefer. Taste and adjust the salt, if needed. If you prefer to cook this on low, it will take 5-6 hours.
