Ingredients
- 1 head garlic
- 1 shallot, large
- olive oil
- 28 oz fire roasted whole tomatoes, canned
- 1 cup chicken stock (or vegetable stock)
- several sprigs of fresh basil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- fresh cracked pepper, to taste
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 2 Tbsp heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Cut a full head of garlic in half, crosswise. Cut a large shallot in half, lengthwise. Put in a small oven-safe dish, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 30-40 minutes until fragrant and tender. When you can handle them safely, remove the roasted garlic and shallot from their skins.
- Put the tomatoes in a blender or food processor along with the roasted garlic and shallot. Puree until smooth.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a Dutch oven until hot, but not smoking. Pour the tomato puree onto the hot oil, it may sputter a little bit so be careful.
- Add the stock and basil to the pot. Bring to a simmer and simmer gently for 15 minutes.
- Remove and discard the basil, and taste to adjust for seasoning. Add sugar if you'd like, and stir in the heavy cream. Serve hot with croutons and fresh basil leaves.
