The Tasteful Kitchen Recipe
Creamy Herbed Tomato Soup
Try roasting the tomatoes on a hot grill for more flavor...
4 large heirloom or yellow tomatoes, (peeled and seeded if desired) chopped
1 medium onion, minced
1-2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 cup half & half or heavy cream
1 tbsp. butter
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
3 tsp. chopped mixed fresh herbs such as basil, chives, parsley, marjoram, or oregano
In a medium pot or Dutch oven, add the butter and onions, sauté until translucent about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and herbs and cook 2 minutes more. Using an herb mill will separate the skins and seeds from the tomato pulp and eliminates the need for blending. Add tomatoes and stock and simmer, about 10-15 minutes. Add cream or half and half and cook until hot. Serve garnished with homemade herb croutons, focaccia, cheese biscuits, or as a first course for an elegant meal.
