This delicious and appealing soup is from Deborah Madison's book Local Flavors. We had purchased all the ingredients at the farmers market with the intent to make the soup for a harvest celebration with our circle sisters. That unfortunately fell through, or has yet again, been postponed. My lovely wife and I went ahead and made the soup and it was great. The yellow tomatoes were a pain to peel but other than that, it was really enjoyable. The color of the tomatoes and peppers were really visually appealing. We didn't have smoked Spanish paprika, but I added a splash of liquid smoke to keep the smoky undertones. This is the first time we've used opal basil and I really liked it. Although I love basil in general, so that's not surprising. Notice how lovely the color blends in with our fall decor, thanks to my lady.

It had an amazing flavor, reminiscent of a Spanish soup my grandma used to make.
