Soup Base

Finishing Touches

Method

Prepare the Base

  1. 1

    Sauté Vegetables

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

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Other Vegetables

    Stir in the minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Tomatoes and Broth

    Add the crushed canned tomatoes, vegetable broth, bay leaves, salt, black pepper, sugar, dried basil, and dried thyme. Stir well to combine.

Cook the Soup

  1. 4

    Simmer the Mixture

    Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for about 20-25 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

Finish the Soup

  1. 5

    Blend the Soup

    Remove the bay leaves and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth, then return it to the pot.

  2. 6

    Add Cream and Herbs

    Stir in the heavy cream and bring the soup back to a gentle simmer. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Finish with fresh chopped basil.
