Yield Makes about 4 1/2 cups, serving 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup tomato juice
1 drained pickled jalapeño pepper, seeded (wear rubber gloves), or to taste
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
3 tablespoons minced fresh coriander
sour cream as an accompaniment if desired

Steps:

  • In a blender blend the tomato juice, the jalapeño pepper, and the sugar until the mixture is smooth. Strain the mixture through a sieve set over a bowl, discard the solids, and stir in the orange juice, the coriander, and enough water to thin the soup to the desired consistency. Season the soup with salt and pepper, chill it, covered, for 1 hour, or until it is cold, and serve it with the sour cream.
