TOMATO BISQUE EASY RECIPES

Steps:

• Add the olive oil to a large pot over medium heat and cook the onion, celery, salt, pepper, cayenne and basil for about 5 to 6 minutes or until the onions are translucent.
• Add in the garlic and stir an additional 45 seconds before adding in the broth, tomatoes and sugar.
• Lower the heat to a simmer and cook for 30 to 40 minutes before blending until perfectly smooth with an immersion blender.
• Add in the heavy cream, mix well and serve using more heavy cream and parsley as garnishes.

Steps:

• In a medium pot, heat the oil.
• Add the onion and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until tender and lightly browned on the edges, about 7 minutes.
• Add the garlic and thyme; stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the tomatoes, broth, honey, salt, and pepper.
• Bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until reduced by a quarter and thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Using a standard or immersion blender, puree about half the soup; it will still be chunky and thick.
• Return it to the pot and stir in the cream.
• Heat gently and adjust the seasonings.
• Ladle into bowls, sprinkle with the parsley if using, and serve immediately.
