Description

There is nothing simpler or more delicious than this soup. Fresh tomatoes are roasted with onions, garlic, thyme and olive oil. They are then simmered and pureed with chicken broth. Once you have tasted this, you will never want a can of tomato soup again!

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds Tomatoes (I Used Plum And Campari)
  • 1 whole Large Onion, Sliced
  • 7 whole Cloves Garlic
  • 3 sprigs Fresh Thyme
  • ¼ cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 pinch Kosher Salt
  • 1 pinch Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 quart Low-sodium Chicken Broth (or Homemade Stock)
  • 1 whole Bay Leaf (fresh, If Possible)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and cut tomatoes in half (if you use anything smaller than a Campari tomato, leave it whole). You can core them, if you like (I did not). Place them on a large baking sheet with the onion, garlic and thyme. Drizzle olive oil over the veggies and sprinkle with Kosher salt and a few generous turns of freshly ground pepper. Give everything a toss. Roast in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes until the veggies are carmelized.

Remove the thyme sprigs and pour the mixture into a medium sized stock pot or Dutch oven. Be sure to get all the juices. Add chicken broth and the bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Simmer for 25 to 30 minutes.

Let cool slightly, remove bay leaf and then puree by either an immersion blender or puree in a regular blender (for a smoother texture). You can also strain the mixture if you want a more elegant soup.

Check for seasonings and add more if needed. Serve immediately or refrigerate (no longer than 2-3 days) and reheat later.

Garnish with a dollop of creme fraiche or other toppings, as desired.

Very simple and tasty soup. I only had grocery store, plain tomatoes and I thought the flavor was wonderful. I can’t imagine how much better it will be with garden grown!

Thought this was quite the tasty soup! It definitely made a TON though, I’d say it serves 8 people easily.
