Does Anyone know any good Tomato Soup Recipes?

Cream of Tomato Soup





Ingredients


15 Tomatoes peeled and seeded (juice reserved)


1 Medium vidalia onion, chopped


2 Ribs celery chopped


2 to 3 tblsp Brown sugar


1 cup Chicken ( or veggie) broth or stock


1 Bay leaf


1 tsp Garlic powder


Salt and pepper


Fresh basil, chiffonade (about 1/2 cup)


1/2 to 3/4 cup Cream (heavy whipping)


1 tblsp Butter


1 tbsp Corn starch





Preparation





1. I shocked the tomatoes to split the skins and remove. I then cored them and de-seeded them over a strainer and bowl so that all the seeds fell in the strainer and the juice into the bowl. Save all of the tomato flesh.





2. In a soup pot, saute the onion and celery in the butter until the onions are soft and translucent. Add some salt and pepper and the garlic powder.





3. Add the peeled and seeded tomatoes and the juice into the soup pot. Add the bay leaf, brown sugar and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 30 minutes.





4. After the 30 minutes, taste it for seasoning. If it needs, re-season it. Remove the bay leaf and add the basil.





5. Let mixture cool slightly. Transfer to a blender, food processor or use an emersion blender to puree the mixture, if needed, blend it in many small batches because the hot mixture will blow the lid right off the blender. Transfer the pureed soup back to the pot and bring to a boil. Mix the corn starch with some water just to get the lumps out and pour this into the soup to thicken it. Turn the heat to low, not boiling, add the cream and stir. Taste it and adjust the seasoning if needed.Does Anyone know any good Tomato Soup Recipes?
