Instructions
- Melt the butter in a medium-to-large pot or dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until browned around the edges, about 7-9 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the minced garlic, stirring for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Remove from heat (move to an empty burner). Carefully pour in the chicken broth and deglaze with a wooden spoon. Add the crushed tomatoes, sugar and basil paste. Give the soup a taste and add salt and pepper to your liking.
- Return to a simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let the soup cool some, for about 5 minutes, then to make a creamy consistency, use an immersion blender to blend directly in the pot (or transfer to a blender in batches once more cool).
- Return to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and parmesan. Give it one last taste – add more salt if needed or more sugar or heavy cream to balance out the acidity.
- Serve hot with lots of freshly cracked black pepper + extra parmesan if desired and enjoy!
Notes
- Store leftover soup in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. If soup thickness too much in the fridge, you can add a dash of broth to help thin it out to your desired consistency.
- To freeze, let hot soup cool completely. Then freeze in an airtight container or freezer safe bag for up to 3-4 months. I like to store soups in freezer safe bags, then lay flat in the freezer until frozen. Once frozen, you can stack the bags vertically to save freezer space!
