Ingredients
- 1 1/2 day old bread torn up
- 1 lemon
- 2 1/2 pounds overripe tomatoes cores removed
- 8 ounces crab meat (fresh)
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (plus)
- 1/4 cup basil leaves (fresh)
- 1 teaspoon pepper flakes (crushed red)
- 4 slices baguette
- 2 slices scallions thinly (sliced)
In a food processor, blend tomatoes until liquid. Add day old bread, basil, thyme and season aggressively with salt and pepper. If too thick, thin with water. Allow to sit in a cool place.
In a medium mixing bowl, toss crab meat, 2 tablespoons extra virgin oil, juice and zest of 1 lemon, red pepper and scallion gently together and season lightly with salt.
Divide cool tomato soup among 4 bowls. Place 1 slice baguette in center of each bowl. Float 2 ounces crab meat mixture on top of each baguette slice and serve.
