Sea Aster & Tomato Soup

To me Sea Aster is one of the best estuary greens. This Sea Aster recipe looks more like a gazpacho, however the delicate flavours of the Sea Aster are complimented really well by the sweet, sunny taste of the tomatoes. I fed it to a friend who usually turns her nose up at a lot of what I make from the wild, but this time it hit the spot, and she even came back for seconds! A Sea Aster recipe that rocks.
