EASY THREE-INGREDIENT TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• Melt butter over medium heat in a Dutch oven or large saucepan.
• Add onion wedges, water, can of tomatoes with their juices, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, for about 40 minutes. Stir occasionally and add additional salt as needed.
• Blend the soup, and then season to taste. The soup doesn't need to be ultra-smooth, some texture is a nice touch. An immersion blender does make quick work of this, or you can use a blender. If you use a regular blender, it is best to blend in batches and not fill the blender as much as you usually would since the soup is so hot. We like to remove the center insert of the lid and cover it with a kitchen towel while blending - this helps to release some of the steam and prevents the blender lid from popping off (which can be a big, hot mess).

BEST TOMATO SOUP EVER

Steps:

• To begin, dice the onion. Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven. Throw in the onion and cook until translucent.
• Now dump in the diced tomatoes and stir to combine. Add the tomato juice.
• Next - and this is important - in order to combat the acidity of the tomatoes add 3 to 6 tablespoons of sugar. Now, you'll want to start on the low side, then taste and add more as needed. Some tomatoes and juice have more of an acidic bite than others. (For what it's worth, and I realize it's not worth much, I use 6 tablespoons of sugar.)
• Next, add 1 or 2 tablespoons chicken base to the pot. I added 3, and it wound up being a little too much.
• Now you can add lots of freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine, then heat almost to a boil. Then turn off the heat.
• Add in the sherry if desired. Stir in the cream. Add the basil and parsley and stir.
• Serve the soup warm!

FIREHOUSE TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Heat oil in a skillet under low heat add onions and shallot. Saute until lightly translucent and soft.
• Slice Plum tomatoes lengthwise, sprinkle with salt and olive oil. Bake for 10mins on each side or until browned.
• Add garlic, stir often and be very careful to watch for burning, about 2 minutes If you see spots of garlic getting brown add small splashes of water over them. Once the garlic is done add the tomato paste, herbs, pepper flakes, salt, pepper, and mix until the paste and onions are blended, another 2-3 minutes.
• Add tomatoes, roasted plum tomatoes, cola, water and butter. Bring to a light simmer for 3 hours Do net let it boil. After 2 hrs taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, before that the flavors have not concentrated. For texture I mashed it with a potato masher, if you prefer it chunky disregard.
• Serve with your favorite pasta and enjoy.

GARDEN FRESH TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• In a stockpot, over medium heat, combine the tomatoes, onion, cloves and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, and gently boil for about 20 minutes to blend all of the flavors. Remove from heat and run the mixture through a food mill into a large bowl, or pan. Discard any stuff left over in the food mill.
• In the now empty stockpot, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to make a roux, cooking until the roux is a medium brown. Gradually whisk in a bit of the tomato mixture, so that no lumps form, then stir in the rest. Season with sugar and salt, and adjust to taste.

FIRE ROASTED TOMATO BASIL SOUP

Steps:

• In a heavy pot on medium high heat, pour in the olive oil and throw in the onion until translucent.
• Add the chopped garlic and heat with the onion for about four minutes.
• Next, add the cans of fire roasted tomatoes including the juice to the pan and cover for about 15 minute **Make sure you stir your mixture every few minutes**.
• With the lid off the pan, add the chicken broth and heavy whipping cream and bring the pot to a simmer. The mixture should start to thicken as it reduces. This should take about 10 minute You want the soup to be somewhat thicken but not soupy. If your soup is a bit thin, let it simmer a bit longer while occasionally stirring.
• When it comes to the right consistency, add the fresh basil (reserve some for a garnish) and season to taste with the salt and pepper. Lower your heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes more.
• Now it's time to get out your blender.
• With a ladel, place the soup mixture in the blender and puree until smooth. You can do this in batches as well. Please use caution when handling the mixture and blender as it could burn your hand as you press down on the lid. I suggest using a small kitchen towel to prevent this.
• After the soup is smooth, pour the soup back into the original pan and check for consistency.
• Serve with a small sprinkle of the reserved bail as a garnish.
• Excellent with crusted bread or toasted crostinis.
• Enjoy!
