Tomato Bread Soup, also known as Pappa al Pomodoro, is one of the soups I really enjoy whether it be a chilly evening or in the summer when fresh tomatoes are in abundance. The Italians do not waste their breads. The stale breads either go to the soup or in a salad, which is really great for they have some great flavorful breads to start with. The first time I had this soup was in an Italian Restaurant, & found it incredibly delicious. I had been wanting to make it since then, but it never happened. When I saw Suganya Tomato Bread Soup, I knew I had to do it at home now I had a recipe at hand.
The Spring air smells good. Along with the change of season comes the colorful blooms of the pretty flowers & some fresh vegetables& fruits in the market. The local market got crates of fresh corn & avocado. (I was somehow under the impression that the corns came during fall..) Anyway. we got quite a few of these. Today I saw Corn Salsa in Peter G’s (Souvlaki for The Soul) blog. His pictures tempted me to make some salsa with the hass avocados & corn right away.
Ever have that warm feeling tickle you when you smell that bread baking in the oven? I always do.. not just at home but even in the bakeries. I start feeling hungry & want to touch & feel that warm, soft loaf. Yeah! it’s that romantic. From not ever baking to bread… I am here today where making bread at home is theraputic for me.
Having been not feeling so good for the past few days, I was yearning for some change of taste for my tasteless sensation in my mouth. That’s what flu does to you – steals your energy, enthusiam & the sensation of the taste buds too. I did not want to even look at anything overcooked, or too spicy. Something different (as if some else cooked for me, you know how everything tastes better when you don’t cook), light & warm yet healthy is exactly what I needed & exactly what I got.
A Stunning drink which comes with a pretty vivid color & a taste as good as it looks. The name, the look, the color, the taste – endless appeals. With the warm air already filling in, I am sure this is going to be The Drink for us during the next few months. That absolutely gorgeous color, the slight tang, & only a few easy steps, with may be some lime & a hint of mint & some spices, result in this all engaging & refreshing Flower Tea or a Sorrel Punch!
