Kitchen Geekery

Today I made up some tomato soup and used my husbands new $5 gadget purchase, the robostir.  It actually worked very well, and was terribly amusing at the same time.

As seen on tv, and a stove top near you!



Soup composed of:
roasted garlic tomato paste  (2 6 oz cans)
2 1/4 cups milk
Dried basil
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
1 clove smashed garlic



Soup was very good, but I was a little worried at first because I thought the little white specs were the result of some strange curdling with the milk.  Turns out they weren't kidding when they said that the paste was rich with roasted garlic!  The resulting soup looked a little funky because of it, but  you just can't have too much garlic for my husband, so he found it a success!

We served it up with some sourdough grilled cheese and bacon and some Ruffles.   I haven't had Ruffles in a very long time, so it was as exciting as a fancy restaurant for me!
