CREAMY TOMATO-BASIL SOUP



Creamy Tomato-Basil Soup image

Pantry ingredients combine for a comforting tomato soup that's rich and creamy. The soup gets that creaminess from canned white beans and sautéed onions, which-when pureed-lend velvety, silky texture. If you have fresh basil in your fridge or in a windowsill pot, it offers prime herb flavor. If not, dried basil works, too, and adds a little earthiness. You can use either a traditional blender or immersion blender to puree; the former yields a smoother texture and the latter a more rustic vibe.

FRESH CREAM OF TOMATO SOUP



Fresh Cream of Tomato Soup image

Provided by KelBel

Categories     Vegetable

1 teaspoon dried basil
3 cups nonfat milk
1/4 cup tomato paste

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomatoes, broth, garlic, thyme, and basil(if using dried). Simmer, covered, until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Cool slightly; transfer to a blender and puree.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your soup will be. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and free of blemishes.
  • Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and sweetness. This step is optional, but it's highly recommended.
  • Use fresh basil: Fresh basil adds a bright, herbaceous flavor to the soup. If you don't have fresh basil, you can use dried basil, but the flavor will be less pronounced.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be simmered until the tomatoes are softened and the flavors have melded, but it shouldn't be boiled. Overcooking the soup will make it lose its flavor.
  • Serve the soup hot: Tomato soup is best served hot, with a sprinkle of fresh basil or a dollop of sour cream.

Conclusion:

This fresh cream of tomato soup with basil is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that's perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying soup that the whole family will enjoy.
