- Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the shallot and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, garlic, and crushed red pepper, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the canned tomatoes (with the juices), white beans, vegetable broth, and a heaping ½ teaspoon salt, cover, and simmer over low heat to allow the flavors to meld, about 20 minutes.
- Add the basil, parmesan, butter, and balsamic vinegar. Puree the soup with an immersion blender or in batches in a blender or food processor until very smooth. (If using a blender, hold a dish towel over the lid and make sure not to cover tightly to allow air to escape from the top).

SIMPLE TOMATO SOUP
This is my go-to tomato soup recipe. It's so easy and delicious. It's easily made vegan (if you use margarine instead of butter or 2 tablespoons of olive oil), ready in 30 minutes, and I give leftovers to my kids for lunch. If you like, you can add cream, but my family likes it the way it is. I usually serve it with rosemary bread for dunking.

Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best taste. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and free of blemishes.
- Roast the tomatoes before making the soup to concentrate their flavor and sweetness. Roasting also helps to remove some of the acidity from the tomatoes.
- Add a variety of herbs and spices to the soup to create a rich and complex flavor. Some good options include garlic, onion, basil, oregano, thyme, and rosemary.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth as the base for the soup. This will give the soup a more flavorful and satisfying taste.
- Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop. The longer you simmer the soup, the more flavorful it will be.
- Serve the soup with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, a sprinkle of fresh herbs, and a side of crusty bread or crackers.
