Keto Tomato Bisque is a delicious and user-friendly dish. You can make a large stock of the bisque & freeze in smaller portionas that of the soup. Bisque only differs from tomato soup in consistency. Soup only uses chicken/vegetable broth & is relatively thinner as compared to the bisque which uses cream to make it rich and thicker.

  • Two tbsps of oil(olives)

INGREDIENT DIRECTIVES:

BROTH:
You may use any type of broth like chicken, vegetable, or bone broth. Use low-sodium homemade/commercial broth or the regular one with less added salt.
TOMATOES:
You have the open choice to use which types of tomatoes you may easily get like Fresh diced tomatoes, or canned (crushed, whole peeled, diced, or fire-roasted) tomatoes.
CREAM:
Use cream (heavy) or half & half to have a strong & rich creamy feel. Regular milk is too thin to use here.
ONIONS, GARLIC, AND CELERY:
These veggies give the classic aroma to our bisque. Fresh garlic always works better but you may use the minced & jarred one.
Oil: We have to saute the veggies using a little oil of avocado/olive or some butter on low heat. Slice the celery & dice the onions.
HERBS:
You have the option to choose the combo of herbs according to your choice. You may use two or three of any fresh/ dried herbs. Italian seasoning also tastes great. If you are using dry herbs then add a teaspoon instead of a tablespoon which was in the case of fresh herbs.

FAQs:

How does bisque differ from the regular soup?
Bisque is richer & creamier than our regular tomato soup. We cook it after adding the cream to evaporate most of the water.

Do we have to complement the soup with any Keto meal?
Our soup is rich & creamier so it usually doesn’t need any complimentary meal. You may take any keto meal according to your choice.

What substitutions do you have to make for a vegan diet?
You have to swap the dairy butter with vegan butter/any vegetable oil & dairy cream with full-fat coconut milk. Now the recipe is perfect for vegans & dairy-free people.
