One of my favorite soups for the fall is a rich, delicious cup of creamy tomato soup. Many others must agree because it’s been a classic part of lunches in America for over one hundred years! Now, you can make it in your own kitchen and share it with those you love.
Yield: 6 cups
Serving size: 1 cup
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp. (28.4g) unsalted butter
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup (80g) onion, chopped
- 4 cups (960g) unsalted chicken stock
- 10 oz. (283.5g) tomato puree, no added salt
- 1/2 tbsp. (9g) salt
- 1/4 tsp. (0.58g) ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp. (0.35g) dried basil
- 2 tsp. (8g) granular erythritol
- 1/2 cup (119.2g) heavy whipping cream
Directions:
- Melt the butter in a 4-quart stainless steel or enamel-coated saucepan or Dutch oven.
- Add in the onion and garlic. Sautee over medium until the vegetables are translucent and fragrant.
- Add the broth, tomatoes, herbs, salt, pepper, and erythritol to the pan.
- Cover and simmer over medium-low for 10 minutes.
- Uncover, and add the cream to the soup.
- Use an immersion blender to puree the hot soup carefully. (If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can blend the soup in small batches in a regular blender. To do this, let the soup cool a little and be careful not to fill the blender more than 1/3 of the way each time. It’s also a good idea to remove the center cap from the blender’s lid to avoid a pressure build-up which can cause the hot soup to splash up and burn you. To avoid splatters, you can lay a thick, clean towel across the opening and avoid putting your hand on the top of the blender while it’s running.)
- Enjoy!
