Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin oil
- 1 yellow onion, peeled and chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped garlic cloves
- 4 yellow tomatoes, peeled and seeded
- Pinch saffron
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat olive oil to medium heat.
Add garlic and onions and allow to sweat for 4 to 5 minutes by covering the pan. Add the tomatoes and saffron.
Season lightly with salt and pepper. Cover and reduce heat to low. Stir occasionally. When the tomatoes, onions, and garlic are soft, remove and allow to cool in a separate container on ice.
When the mixture is cool, puree in a blender or food processor.
Serve hot or cold, garnished with a drizzle of olive oil.

I make this all the time and everyone always loves it! There's so much flavor and it's so easy to make! I would add a little water to make it soupier if it's too thick for your liking and garnish it to make it pretty for company, but this is a staple for me. It also feels very soothing and healthy, my mom made it for me when I recently got sick and it was like the vegetarians equivalent of chicken noodle soup. Definitely a comfort food. I make a whole lot at one time and freeze individual servings, it's a great quick meal!

This was not good. First of all, there's too much garlic, and it burned cooking on medium heat for that long. I would try a lower heat, or add the garlic later. The total recipe ("2 servings" made about one cup of soup. The flavors in the finished product just didn't work well for me.
