Tomato Bisque Recipe

Tomato Bisque Preparation

1. 1

   Sauté Vegetables

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

2. 2

   Add Tomatoes and Broth

   Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and let cook for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

3. 3

   Blend the Soup

   Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. If you don't have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.

4. 4

   Add Cream and Season

   Return the blended soup to the pot. Stir in the heavy cream, chopped basil, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Heat through for another 5 minutes.

5. 5

   Serve

   Ladle the bisque into bowls and garnish with additional basil if desired.
