I don’t make tomato soup from scratch often. There’s a certain red can I reach for instinctively when I’m hit with a tomato soup craving. And I don’t want to disappoint my tastebuds by giving them something they did not ask for. I have similar feelings about homemade ketchup. There is no way to replicate the manufactured flavor I have so much nostalgia for in my kitchen. But what if I took my beloved tomato soup just far enough off of the beaten track to make something different? Perhaps I could make a different sense memory and make something I would be proud to serve without disappointing the, um, less-sophisticated side of my palette. Well, it turns out I could and I have this Red Curry Tomato Soup to show for it.
