Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 medium yellow onions
- 1 celery rib diced
- 1 medium carrot peeled and diced
- 6 garlic cloves minced or chopped
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 (28-ounce cans) whole peeled San Marzano tomatoes
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- Optional: fresh herbs, heavy cream, freshly grated parmesan or parmesan crisps, and extra olive oil.
Instructions
- Sauté the vegetables. Heat the oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and carrot. Saute for 4 to 5 minutes, until softened.
- Add the aromatics. Add the garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper, then stir for another minute.
- Add the tomatoes and broth. Add the tomatoes and broth, then simmer on low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Blend. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup to a creamy texture. Alternatively, for an ultra-smooth texture (which I prefer), transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches, then return it to the pot. If you'd like a creamier texture, feel free to add a few tablespoons of heavy cream.
- Garnish and serve. Serve the tomato soup in bowls, and if you'd like, garnish with a drizzle of extra olive oil, some parmesan crisps, and fresh herbs.
Equipments used:
Notes
- ½ to 1 cup more broth. This will also extend the servings a bit.
- If you'd like a thinner consistency on the soup, feel free to add ½ to 1 cup more broth. This will also extend the servings a bit.
- If you'd like a creamier version or would like to cut down on the acidity of the tomato soup, you can add a few tablespoons of heavy cream while blending.
- This soup can be stored in the fridge for 4 to 5 days. And if you want to freeze it, it will last in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you're ready to enjoy it, let it thaw in the fridge, then reheat it in the microwave or on the stovetop until warm.
- Each serving is about 2 cups.
