Ingredients

Roasted Tomato and Garlic

  • 34 lbs. ripe organic tomatoes, cut into wedges
  • 2 garlic bulbs
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Soup Base

  • 1 1/2 cups organic heavy cream
  • 2 cups organic vegetable stock
  • 4 Tbsps tomato paste, organic
  • 1 tsp sea salt (plus more to taste)
  • 1 tsp On Everything All-Purpose Blend
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

To Serve

  • Grilled cheese sandwich (optional)

Instructions

  1. Roast Tomatoes and Garlic: Roast the tomatoes and garlic bulbs until caramelized and tender, following the herb roasted tomato technique for maximum flavor development. Once roasted, squeeze the garlic cloves out of the bulb.
  2. Sauté Onions: In a medium-sized Dutch oven over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chopped onions and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until translucent and fragrant. Remove from heat.
  3. Blend Ingredients: Transfer the sautéed onions to a high-powered blender. Add the roasted tomatoes, squeezed garlic, tomato paste, and vegetable stock. Blend until smooth and fully combined. Save some roasted tomatoes for garnish if desired.
  4. Combine Soup Base: Pour the blended tomato mixture back into the Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Stir in the heavy cream, sea salt, All-Purpose Blend, and smoked paprika until fully integrated.
  5. Heat Soup: Bring the mixture to a boil, cooking for 1-2 minutes, then reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 5-6 minutes to develop flavor and thicken the soup.
  6. Finish and Serve: Once thickened, remove the soup from heat. Serve immediately in bowls, topped with reserved roasted tomatoes. Accompany with a grilled cheese sandwich if desired for a classic comfort meal.

Notes

  • You can use any ripe tomatoes; roasting them enhances their natural sweetness.
  • Be sure to remove the roasted garlic from the bulb before blending for a smooth texture.
  • Adjust seasoning with additional salt or All-Purpose Blend as preferred.
  • For a vegan version, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream or cashew cream.
  • The soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
