Tomato Bisque Soup Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Sauté the Vegetables

   In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions, minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes.

2. 2

   Add Tomatoes and Broth

   Stir in the canned tomatoes (with their juice) and vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes.

3. 3

   Blend the Soup

   Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.

4. 4

   Finish with Cream and Seasoning

   Return the blended soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, chopped basil, and sugar. Heat through and adjust seasoning to taste.

5. 5

   Serve

   Ladle the tomato bisque soup into bowls and garnish with additional fresh basil, if desired. Serve hot.
