Chef's Notes
Ground chuck at 80/20 is your best friend here because the slight fat content brings unmatched richness, but do not skip skimming or your soup will look like an oil slick.
Pro Tip
Char your canned tomatoes slightly in a dry skillet before adding them if you want an extra layer of smoky depth that mimics a campfire.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Leaving the heat too high while adding the cheese will cause the dairy to split into a grainy, oily nightmare instead of melting smoothly into a velvety dream.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
The royal jester wonders if we are calling this 'soup' just because we didn't have enough taco shells to go around.
The Culinary Science
Fire-roasted tomatoes get their complex flavor from Maillard reactions and caramelization that occur when tomatoes are exposed to an open flame before canning.
