Steps:
- Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally until soft, 8 minutes. With kitchen string, tie the basil sprigs together. Add basil sprigs, tomatoes, chicken stock to the onions. Over high heat, bring to a boil. Reduce to medium low and simmer until reduced by one-quarter, about 20 minutes. Cool 10 minutes. Remove the basil and discard.
- In a blender, puree the soup in several batches until very smooth, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Return to a clean soup pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Season with salt to taste. (The soup can be done up to one day in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve. If so, heat the soup over medium heat until hot, 5 minutes.)
- Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with rosemary or basil strips.
