Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the roasted tomatoes
3 pounds roma or plum tomatoes, cut in half
8 cloves garlic, peeled
3 tablespoons olive oil
Freshly ground salt and pepper
For the caramelized onions:
½ tablespoon olive oil
2 yellow onions, thinly sliced
Additions to the soup:
½ cup packed basil leaves
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1-2 cups water or vegetarian broth, depending on how thick you want the soup
Freshly ground salt and pepper, to taste
Optional add ins:
Light/Regular coconut milk for a creamy vegan soup
Whole dairy milk/heavy cream for a creamy texture
Parmesan cheese, for a tangy, flavor enhancing flavor
A tablespoon or two of butter, for richer flavor

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place halved tomatoes and garlic cloves on the baking sheet and drizzle with 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Generously season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 40-45 minutes.
  • While the tomatoes are roasting, you can make the caramelized onions: Add 1/2 tablespoon olive oil to a large pot and place over medium heat. Add the onion slices and stir to coat the onions with olive oil. Cook, stirring occasionally. Check onions every 5-10 minutes until they have completely caramelized and turned golden in color. This ususally takes 20 minutes.
  • Once tomatoes and garlic are done roasting, allow them to cool for 10 minutes, then add them to a food processor or high powered blender and blend until smooth. Next add basil and caramelized onions and blend again. Alternatively you can add the tomatoes to the large pot and use an immersion blender. It's really just about what you have available to you.
  • After blending, transfer back to pot, turn to medium low heat and add in oregano, vegetarian broth and salt and pepper to taste. From there you can add in any additional add-ons you want (as listed in the ingredients). Allow tomato soup to simmer 10 minutes before serving. To serve, garnish with parmesan cheese and serve with grilled cheese, if desired. Serves 4.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will ensure that your soup has the best possible flavor. You can use a variety of tomato varieties, such as Roma, heirloom, or cherry tomatoes.
  • Roast the garlic before adding it to the soup. This will help to mellow out the flavor of the garlic and make it more sweet and savory.
  • Use fresh basil for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh basil, you can use dried basil, but it will not have as much flavor.
  • Let the soup cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent the soup from being too hot to eat and will also allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt, and a sprinkle of fresh basil. This will add a creamy richness and a pop of freshness to the soup.

Conclusion:

Chilled tomato roasted garlic and basil soup is a delicious and refreshing soup that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its vibrant color and delicious flavor, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
