Steps:
- Sauté first 5 ingredients in olive oil until soft in an 8-10 quart pot. Make a bundle of the sage, thyme and bay leaves by wrapping them with string in cheesecloth (you can tie the string to a pot handle to make it easier to remove later). Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours. Let cool. Puree through a food mill fitted with a medium blade. The use of a medium blade gives you a soup with plenty of pulp (you can adjust blade size if you like). Reheat and adjust seasonings as needed. Add a splash of heavy cream before serving if you want cream of tomato soup. If you don't have a food mill you can also make this a semi-chunky soup, but I'd recommend a smaller dice for onions, carrots, celery and red peppers. To make a sauce, return to pot after pureeing and let it continue to simmer over low heat until it reaches the desired consistency.
