Soups - Tomato Soup with Dumplings by Dana D. - Recipia

To prepare a delicious vegetable soup with dumplings, the first step is to ensure we have all the necessary ingredients. We start by carefully cleaning and washing the celery, bell pepper, onion, carrot, and parsley stems. These vegetables will add a rich flavor and savory aroma to our soup. After cleaning them, we cut them into suitable pieces and put them to boil in a large pot of water. Meanwhile, we take care of the tomatoes. We peel them and, using a grater, obtain a fresh and delicious juice. This tomato juice will enrich the soup, giving it a vibrant color and intense flavor. Once the vegetables in the pot are cooked, we remove them with a slotted spoon and mash them until we obtain a fine puree. Now, it’s time to combine all the ingredients. Over the vegetable soup, we add the tomato juice and two tablespoons of olive oil, stirring gently. We let this combination boil for five minutes to allow the flavors to blend harmoniously. Then, we add the mashed vegetables and season with salt and pepper to taste, ensuring that our soup will be perfectly seasoned. Preparing the dumplings is the next step. In a bowl, we beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they become frothy. Then, we gradually add the semolina and the egg yolks, mixing carefully to obtain a homogeneous composition. It is important to remember that there is no fixed amount of semolina, so we will adjust according to the desired consistency of the mixture. After obtaining the dumpling mixture, we let everything boil in the soup for another 20 minutes. We reduce the heat to minimum, and with a spoon moistened in cold water, we form the dumplings and "launch" them carefully into the soup. If you notice they are falling apart, it is a sign that more semolina is needed. A little secret to keep them intact is to pour a cup of cold water over them. We let them simmer gently on low heat, and after the dumplings are cooked, we can test one to ensure they are done. Our soup is now ready to be served. We can enjoy it both hot and cold, abundantly sprinkled with freshly chopped parsley, which will add an extra touch of freshness and flavor. This soup is perfect for any occasion, being not only nourishing but also comforting, ideal for cool days.
