Number Of Ingredients 14

6 tablespoon(s) olive oil
6 medium yellow onions
1 bunch(es) celery
2 pound(s) carrot
2 tablespoon(s) salt
2 teaspoon(s) black pepper
1 teaspoon(s) cayenne pepper
18+ clove(s) garlic
24 cup(s) chicken broth
2180 ounce(s) tomatoes, canned and chopped, with liquid
6 can(s) tomato paste
6 tablespoon(s) sugar
6 cup(s) heavy cream
2 bunch(es) parsley

Steps:

  • Dice all the first three ingredients, place the olive oil in the pan(s), and add the next three ingredients, Cook for 6 to 8 minutes. I split mine between 2 pans for ease.
  • Add the garlic to the pan(s), cook for another 3 or 4 minutes
  • Place the chicken broth, tomatoes and the sugar in the roaster or whatever you are cooking in. Then add in the coked vegetable mixture from above.
  • Add in the tomato paste, Simmer all for at least 45 min. to an hour. Now process the mixture by either a blender, food processor or a Ninja. After you have pureed the mixture, pour into a holding container. When all your mixture is pureed place back in the roaster.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add in the heavy cream about 30 min. prior to serving, reheat to serving temp (145-165) DO NOT BOIL after adding cream. Serve in bowls, add a teaspoon size swirl of heavy cream in each bowl if desired for appearance and garnish with fresh parsley
