Ingredients
4 medium tomatoes, preferably heirloom varieties, chopped
4 cups diced seedless watermelon
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
1 medium shallot, sliced
1/3 cup loosely packed basil and mint, plus small leaves for topping
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
3 tablespoons champagne vinegar
Directions
- Place the tomatoes, watermelon, cucumber, bell pepper, shallot, basil and mint in a large bowl. Season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and pepper to taste. Stir in the olive oil and vinegar.
- Puree the tomato mixture in a blender, in batches if necessary. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing to extract any liquid; discard the solids and season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
- To serve, top the soup with the small herb leaves and a drizzle of olive oil.
