How it comes together

Method

Blend tomatoes and celery until smooth. Pass through a fine sieve.
Stir in lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce and celery salt. Taste and adjust.

Or serve as a virgin Bloody Mary. It is genuinely excellent without the alcohol.

Tips

Salt the tomatoes for 30 minutes before blending. It concentrates the flavor significantly.
