2. Stir the light cream into the soup and season to taste with salt and pepper.
3. Pour the soup into eight chilled cups and float a thin slice of tomato on each serving. Spoon the whipped cream onto each slice or push it through a pastry tube. Garnish each serving with sprinklings of chopped scallions.
