SOUP ESSENTIALS: AWESOME FIRE-ROASTED TOMATO SOUP
I really, really wanted to call this a bisque, but there is no such thing as a tomato bisque, so soup it is. It is simple to make, and packs amazing flavor. Serve it on a cold Winter's eve with a grilled-cheese sandwich, and you will be in heaven. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

Steps:
- 1. PREP/PREPARE
- 2. Bisque versus Soup A "traditional" bisque (traditional being the operative word in this sentence), is made from shellfish (lobster, crab shrimp, etc.). However, times change, and things evolve. Today, you can go into many restaurants, and order tomato bisque. Which, according to purists is essentially a cream of tomato soup. It is kind of like putting lipstick on a pig... What has that to do with this recipe? Probably nothing, but now you know the rest of the story.
- 3. While making this soup, I tried regular milk, half & half, and heavy cream. I felt that the regular milk did not have enough punch, and the heavy cream overwhelmed the tomato taste... half & half won the day. FYI: You can leave the half & half out of the recipe, and it still tastes pretty dang good.
- 4. Do not forget to bake your garlic before adding it. If you have never baked garlic, you are missing out on a nice treat. Here is a recipe, if you need one: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/seasoning-mix/cooking-essentials-baked-garlic.html?r=4
- 5. The tomatoes for this recipe will determine the final taste and quality. I am using Muir Glen, Organic, Fire Roasted tomatoes; however, there are a lot of good brands out there... just make sure that they are fire roasted.
- 6. This soup freezes really well; however, if you choose to freeze it, then do not add the half & half. When you defrost it, warm it up, and add it before serving. That will make it taste SUPER fresh.
- 7. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
- 8. Add the butter to a saucepan, or heavy-bottomed pot, over medium heat.
- 9. After the foaming subsides, add the onions, and stir until they just begin to soften, about 3 - 4 minutes.
- 10. Add the celery and carrots, then stir for about 2 minutes.
- 11. Add the garlic, and stir for about 30 seconds.
- 12. I do not have a photo for this step (my bad); however, add the tomato paste, and the remainder of the dry spices (with the exception of the sugar), and stir to combine, about 2 - 3 minutes.
- 13. Chef's Note: It goes without saying (so I am going to say it anyway)... At no time during this cooking process will you allow the veggies to brown or, heaven forbid, burn. We just want them softened, so they can give up their yummy flavors to the soup.
- 14. Add the tomatoes, and the sugar.
- 15. Reduce the heat, and allow the mixture to barely simmer.
- 16. Continue to simmer for 30 minutes.
- 17. Chef's Note: During this time, the liquid will reduce, and the flavors of the veggies and spices will blend in with the tomatoes. Be careful and make is a very low, slow simmer.
- 18. After 30 minutes, add the chicken stock, and continue to slow simmer for an additional 15 minutes.
- 19. Add the contents of the saucepan to a blender, and blend until completely smooth, return to the pot, and add the half & half, and the lemon juice.
- 20. Chef's Note: If you want the soup to be a little chunky, then only blend half the soup... up to you.
- 21. Bring the soup up to serving temperature over low heat, about 5 minutes.
- 22. PLATE/PRESENT
- 23. Serve with a dollop of sour cream, some parmesan, and maybe some fresh basil. Enjoy.
- 24. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
FIRE-ROASTED TOMATO SOUP
This "souped up" dish is my take on a traditional tomato soup. Fire-roasted tomatoes add a bit of heat and you can load it up with cheddar cheese, sour cream and bacon. - Cathy Hall, Lyndhurst, Virginia

FIRE-ROASTED TOMATO SOUP
This is the best to-die-for fire-roasted tomato soup! It can be made for Italian tastes or Mexican tastes! My favorite is the Mexican! Cilantro is the best! Use basil for the cilantro if you prefer an Italian flavor.

Steps:
- In a heavy pot on medium high heat, pour in the olive oil and throw in the onion until translucent.
- Add the chopped garlic and heat with the onion for about four minutes.
- Next, add the cans of fire roasted tomatoes including the juice to the pan and cover for about 15 minute **Make sure you stir your mixture every few minutes**.
- 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.
- Now it's time to get out your blender.
- With a ladel, place the soup mixture in the blender and puree until smooth. You can do this in batches as well. Please use caution when handling the mixture and blender as it could burn your hand as you press down on the lid. I suggest using a small kitchen towel to prevent this.
- After the soup is smooth, pour the soup back into the original pan and check for consistency.
- Serve with a small sprinkle of the reserved bail as a garnish.
- Excellent with crusted bread or toasted crostinis.
- Enjoy!
