INSTRUCTIONS

From a web site of the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany (Source:
"Kochen rund um's Jahr", by Heidemarie Freund)  Cut the tomatoes into
halves or quarters, depending on size. (I  peeled them first.) Finely
chop onions. Melt butter in a casserole  add onions, season with salt,
thyme and rosemary. Fry onions until  soft. Add tomatoes and fry them
together with the onions for another  5 minutes, stirring constantly.
Add the bay leaf and the beef stock.  With the lid closed let the soup
simmer at low heat for about 40  minutes. Then pass the soup through a
sieve or blend it in a mixer.  (I put my small hand-held mixer into the
casserole and it worked  well.) For a short moment, bring the soup to a
boil again. Then add  salt and pepper to taste and pour the gin into
the soup. Mix well.  Serve with a spoonful of whipped cream on each
portion.  Posted to FOODWINE Digest 22 Mar 97 by Antje Harder
