Photo: Roasted Tomato Basil Soup Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 frozen diced onion
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 cup dry vermouth
- 3 (15-ounce) cans roasted diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 10 large fresh basil leaves, chopped, plus more for garnish
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cream
Directions
In a medium pot over medium high heat, saute diced onions and garlic in olive oil for 1 minute. Add remaining ingredients except for cream. Bring to boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes.
Remove soup from heat. Working in batches, puree soup in blender. NOTE: When blending hot liquids, only fill blender bowl halfway and place kitchen towel over lid. Always start with lower blender settings before puree setting.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Return puree to saucepan, add cream and heat through. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh basil.

I really liked the fire roasted tomato taste. First time making a tomato soup from scratch. I had a lot of fresh purple basil growing in planter and was looking for recipes that used basil. Would probably add a bit more next time and maybe more garlic too. I added a chopped jalapeno pepper without seeds and it added some kick.
