SAVORY TOMATO JUICE

When thinking about umami and cocktails, the perfect example is a Bloody Mary made with the juice of roasted tomatoes and Worcestershire sauce. Lighter, less expected hints of umami can make cocktails intensely satisfying, too. Sometimes it’s as simple as a pinch of salt, though an earthy background of truffle can also add that indescribably complex umami allure. So can this tomato juice.

1 pound roasted cherry tomatoes

1 or 2 roasted chiles (serrano, jalapeño, or Thai bird), to taste

4 cups / 1 quart plain tomato juice

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1/4 cup / 2 fl oz freshly squeezed lemon juice

2 tbsp / 1 fl oz freshly squeezed lime juice

Roast whole tomatoes and halved, seeded chilies in a 400°F oven until shriveled and just beginning to char, 30 to 40 minutes. This may be done up to 3 days in advance.

Combine all the ingredients in a heavy-duty blender and process until completely smooth. Working in batches, use the back of a spoon to push the mixture through a wire-mesh strainer into a large pitcher. Discard the solids as you work. This can be made ahead and refrigerated, covered, for up to 10 days.

Makes about 6 cups
