Ingredients Notes For Roasted Tomato Soup:

  • Tomatoes: Fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor.
  • Garlic: Roasted garlic adds a sweet, mellow flavor.
  • Onion: Adds depth and sweetness to the soup.

  • Basil: Fresh basil for a hint of freshness.

Recipe Steps:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the Vegetables:
    • Cut 2 pounds of fresh tomatoes in half and place them cut-side up on a baking sheet. Add 1 large onion, sliced, and 4-6 cloves of garlic, peeled.
    • Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Roast the Vegetables:
    • Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft and slightly caramelized.
  4. Blend the Soup:
    • Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender or food processor. Add 3 cups of vegetable or chicken broth and blend until smooth. You may need to do this in batches.
    • Alternatively, use an immersion blender to blend the soup directly in the pot.
  5. Simmer the Soup:
    • Pour the blended soup into a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup of chopped fresh basil and stir to combine. Simmer for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Optional Cream:
    • For a creamier soup, stir in 1/2 cup of heavy cream or half-and-half. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve:
    • Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with additional fresh basil or a drizzle of olive oil. Serve hot with grilled cheese sandwiches or crusty bread.
