Emeril's Creole Style Tomato
Soup with
Goats Cheese Dumplings
Recipe Courtesy of Emeril Lagasse
Yield: 10 cups of soup, 16 dumplings
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups chopped yellow onions
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped carrots
2 tablespoons minced garlic
8 cups chopped fresh tomatoes,
peeled and seeded
1/2 gallon [8 cups] chicken broth
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
Salt and pepper
Pinch of cayenne
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup goat's cheese, room temperature
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped basil
16 wonton wrappers
1/4 cup water
Garnish: 2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
Preheat the fryer. In a large sauce pan, heat the olive oil. When
the oil is
hot, sauté the onions, celery and carrots. Season the vegetables with salt,
pepper, and cayenne. Sauté the vegetables for 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and tomatoes.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring often. Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce
the heat to a simmer and cook for 1 hour and
15 minutes. Using a hand-held blender, puree
half of the soup. Stir in the parsley. Re-season with salt and pepper if needed. Stir in
the heavy cream.
For the dumplings: In a small mixing bowl, combine the
Goat's cheese, extra-virgin olive oil and basil. Mix until the mixture is fully
incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture in
the
center of each wonton wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrappers with
a little water. Bring
two corners of the wrappers together and seal, forming
a triangle. Fry the wontons for 1-2
minutes or until the dumplings are
golden and crispy. Remove from the fryer and drain on a
paper-lined plate. Season the dumplings with
Essence. Ladle the soup in a shallow
bowl. Garnish with the dumplings and parsley.
