Creamy Tomato Bisque
Description
Creamy Tomato Bisque starts by sautéing onions and garlic in olive oil until softened and fragrant. Adding Hunt's Recipe Ready Paste, crushed tomatoes, and chicken broth forms a rich tomato base. Simmering for up to an hour enhances flavor melding. The soup is then pureed with an immersion blender to a velvety smooth consistency before stirring in heavy cream for richness. Seasoning with salt and black pepper adjusts the final taste.
Accompanying the bisque are garlic croutons made by slicing a French baguette, dipping each slice in a butter and garlic powder mixture, then broiling briefly until golden and crisp. These provide a crunchy texture to contrast the bisque's creaminess.
This soup works well as a warming starter or light meal, offering balanced acidity and creaminess with complementary crispy croutons.
