Best Nanies Easy Creamy Tomato Soup Recipes

QUICK CREAMY TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• Combine broth and tomatoes in a medium saucepan over moderate heat. When soup bubbles, stir in heavy cream and reduce heat to low. Season with a little salt and pepper and simmer gently 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. With an immersion blender, puree soup. Serve bowls of soup with basil chiffonade and floating Soup Toppers.
• Toast bread slices in your toaster until golden. Rub the toasted bread rounds with crushed garlic, if using. Arrange bread on cookie or baking sheet. Drizzle each slice with extra-virgin oil and top with a grind of black pepper and a layer of shredded cheese. Place under hot broiler to melt cheese until toppers are golden brown in color.

CREAMY TOMATO SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat a nonreactive pot or enameled dutch oven over medium heat. Add butter then add chopped onions. Sauté 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden. Add minced garlic and sauté 1 minute until fragrant.
• Add crushed tomatoes with their juice, chicken stock, chopped basil, sugar (or add sugar to taste), and black pepper. Stir together and bring to a boil then reduce heat, partially cover with lid and simmer for 10 minutes.
• You can leave your soup with a chunky consistency, but if you like a blended/creamy soup, use an immersion blender to blend the soup in the pot to desired consistency or transfer to a blender in batches and blend until smooth (being careful not to over-fill the blender with hot liquid), then return blended soup to the pot over medium heat.
• Add 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese and return to a simmer. Season to taste with salt and pepper if needed and turn off the heat.*
• Ladle into warm bowls and top with more parmesan and chopped fresh basil.

Steps:

• 1. In a Dutch Oven (preferably cast iron) or a large saucepan, heat butter over medium-low heat. Do not allow it to burn. Add the chopped onions and chopped celery; cook, stirring until tender and translucent.
• 2. Stir the flour into the vegetable mixture, stirring until well mixed. Slowly pour the milk into the flour vegetable mix stirring to combine; add the sugar, salt, and pepper. Continue to heat on medium-low stirring frequently until mixture thickens and begins to boil. Keep a close watch and do not allow the mixture to scorch.
• 3. Heat tomatoes in a separate pan, If using can tomatoes you may want to dice smaller or slightly puree in a blender or food processor before heating.
• 4. Once the tomatoes are heated through gradually add them to the first mixture, stirring constantly, until well blended. At this point taste and adjust seasonings to suit your palate.
• 5. Garnish with fresh grated parmesan cheese and/or fresh sliced basil leaves, if desired. I like both.
• 6. Serve this along side a grilled cheese sandwich and you have a match made in heaven.

CREAMY TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• Place a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and heat until just fragrant. Place 8 quarters of the bread into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 30 seconds on each side. Remove the bread and set aside for serving.
• Add the garlic, onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the oil. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions start to lose their color and soften, about 8 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook until caramelized, about 1 minute more. Pour in the vegetable stock, canned tomatoes and basil and stir to combine. Swirl 1/2 cup water in each can of tomatoes and pour into the soup. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to low and simmer until the onions are soft, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, rip the remaining bread into bite-size pieces and submerge them in the cream in a medium bowl.
• Puree the soup until smooth using an immersion blender. Add the cream and bread. Puree again until free of any lumps. Stir in the honey and taste for seasoning. Serve warm, each bowl topped with an olive oil crouton.
