• With the lid off the pan, add the chicken broth and heavy whipping cream and bring the pot to a simmer. The mixture should start to thicken as it reduces. This should take about 10 minute You want the soup to be somewhat thicken but not soupy. If your soup is a bit thin, let it simmer a bit longer while occasionally stirring.
• When it comes to the right consistency, add the fresh basil (reserve some for a garnish) and season to taste with the salt and pepper. Lower your heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes more.

OVEN-ROASTED TOMATO PASTE OR PUREE

Steps:

• Peel tomatoes. The easiest way to do this is to drop them into a container of boiling-hot water, leave for 1 minute, then drop them into a container of ice-water - the skin slips right off). Halve them and put into a baking pan large enough to hold them in one layer.
• Dribble with olive oil (the amount is arbitrary - I imagine that's about what I use), sprinkle with minced garlic, generously season with salt, pepper, basil and oregano. Give everything a stir to distribute.
• Pop into 350F oven and roast for about 3 hours (this is approximate - it all depends on how thick you want your puree or paste).
• When they're done, I like to mash the tomatoes into a paste because I like a more rustic texture. If you want smoother, use a processor.
• I keep the puree/paste in a tupperware container, in the refrigerator, covered by a thin film of olive oil to prevent oxidization. I dig into it almost daily to provide a burst of flavour into many, many dishes like soups, stews, sauces, gravies, omelettes, etc.
• This freezes well, too.

ROASTED TOMATO SOUP WITH BASIL PUREE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the tomatoes in a single layer.
• Place the tomato halves, cut sides up, and the garlic in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the oil, then top each tomato half with half a basil leaf, turning each leaf over to coat in oil.
• Bake 50-60 minutes, or until the edges of the tomatoes are slightly blackened.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, bring the broth, water, potato and tomato paste to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat slightly and boil until the potato is tender, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer half of the mixture to a blender. Process until smooth but still a bit chunky. Transfer to a medium stockpot. Repeat with remaining potato and roasted tomato mixture. Stir over medium-low heat until heated through.
• Process all ingredients for the basil puree (last 5 ingredients starting with basil) in a food processor until smooth.
• Serve hot, garnished with equal portions of basil puree.
