Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup diced onion
½ cup diced celery
1 pinch salt

1 (32 ounce) container chicken broth, or more as needed
1 (28 ounce) can crushed San Marzano tomatoes
½ teaspoon paprika
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper, or to taste

½ cup heavy whipping cream
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil leaves, divided

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir onion and celery with a pinch of salt until onion is translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Pour chicken broth and tomatoes into onion mixture. Bring to a simmer and season with paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Turn heat to low and stir rice into soup; skim foam occasionally and simmer until rice and vegetables are very tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Add sugar.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your bisque will be. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and free of blemishes.
  • Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives the bisque a smoky depth of flavor. Don't skip this step!
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your bisque. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the tofu: Tofu is a delicate protein that can easily be overcooked. Be careful not to boil the tofu, as this will make it tough and rubbery.
  • Use a blender or food processor: A blender or food processor will help you create a smooth and creamy bisque. If you don't have either of these appliances, you can use a potato masher to mash the tofu and tomatoes until smooth.
  • Season to taste: Once you've blended the bisque, taste it and adjust the seasonings accordingly. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.

Conclusion:

This tomato tofu bisque is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. The soup is creamy and flavorful, and the tofu adds a boost of protein. Serve the bisque with a side of crusty bread or crackers for a complete meal.
