Categories     Soup/Stew     Tomato

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 lbs fresh tomatoes
2 cloves fresh garlic
1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper
24 ounce can Italian plum tomatoes
1 bunch fresh basil
Sea salt
Excellent quality extra virgin olive oil
1 large vidalia onion

Steps:

  • * Quarter the tomatoes and place on a sheet pan. * Add 1 garlic clove, sliced. * Add a pinch of the ground black pepper. * Remove skin of onion and cut into 1" pieces, add to sheet pan as well. * Roast in preheated 350-degree oven for 25 minutes-this will caramelize the tomato and onion while intensifying flavor. * In a stockpot add the remaining garlic and roasted vegetable mixture. * Add chopped bunch of basil and can of tomatoes-all hand crushed. * Bring to a boil, let simmer for 20 minutes. * By now the tomatoes should have broken down a bit. Feel free to puree with a hand blender or leave hearty. * Add salt and pepper if needed. * Serve with good Italian ciabatta bread.
