(Copycat) La Madeline's Tomato Basil Soup image

This is the closest I have managed to copying the Tomato Basil soup at La Madeline. This is the best soup for cold winter nights, and I have yet to meet anyone who did not like it.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups whole canned tomatoes (or 8-10 fresh peeled, and chopped)
4 cups tomato juice, & broth mix of (50/50, I used vegetable broth to make the recipe vegetarian)
8 basil leaves, chopped finely or 1 tablespoon dried basil
1 cup cream
8 tablespoons sweet unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine tomatoes, tomato juice and broth in a saucepan and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Puree with basil in the blender. Make sure that this is smooth - I always strain it.
  • Return to saucepan. Add cream and butter while stirring over low heat.
  • Serve and enjoy!

This soup is so versatile. You can add whatever vegetables you like. I often add carrots, celery, and zucchini.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I found this soup to be a bit bland. I added some salt, pepper, and garlic powder and it was much better.

This soup is a bit too spicy for me. I think I'll use less red pepper flakes next time.
