{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Contest-Winning Roasted Tomato Soup Recipe

 

Contest-Winning Roasted Tomato Soup Recipe


Just before the first frost of the season, we gather up all of the tomatoes from my mom's garden to create this flavor-packed soup. Although it sounds like a lot of garlic, when it's roasted, the garlic becomes mellow and almost sweet. We serve this soup with toasted bread spread with pesto.—Kaitlyn Lerdahl, Madison, Wisconsin

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min.
Cook: 40 min.
MAKES: 6 servings


Ingredients

15 large tomatoes (5 pounds), seeded and quartered
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons canola oil, divided
8 garlic cloves, minced
1 large onion, chopped
2 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
Fresh basil leaves, optional



Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. Place tomatoes in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Combine 1/4 cup oil and garlic; drizzle over tomatoes. Toss to coat. Bake 15-20 minutes or until softened, stirring occasionally. Remove and discard skins.

Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, saute onion in remaining oil until tender. Add tomatoes, water, salt and, if desired, pepper flakes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 30 minutes or until flavors are blended. Cool slightly.

In a blender, process soup in batches until smooth. Return to pan. Stir in cream and heat through. Yield: 6 servings.
