Tomato Gorgonzola Soup is a rich and creamy dish that blends the tangy sweetness of tomatoes with the bold, slightly pungent flavor of Gorgonzola cheese. This comforting soup is perfect for chilly days and pairs beautifully with crusty bread or a grilled cheese sandwich.

Origin Tomato Gorgonzola Soup

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes

  • 2 cups vegetable broth

  • 1 teaspoon dried basil

  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano

  • ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  • ½ cup heavy cream

  • 4 oz Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Directions

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add minced garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Pour in the crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, dried basil, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
  • Cover and let the soup cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the heavy cream and crumbled Gorgonzola cheese. Stir until the cheese is fully melted and incorporated.
  • Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth (or transfer to a blender in batches).
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  • Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil or parsley, and enjoy with a slice of crusty bread.

Notes

  • Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle heat boost.
  • If the soup is too thick, add a bit more vegetable broth to reach your desired consistency.
