Ingredients diff
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 (28 oz) can whole peeled tomatoes
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 tsp red wine vinegar (optional)
Steps diff
- In a heavy pot, cook onion and garlic in olive oil over medium heat until soft and sweet.
- Add tomatoes, tomato paste, and stock and simmer gently for 20 minutes.
- Blend until completely smooth with an immersion or countertop blender.
- Return to low heat, stir in cream, and warm without boiling.
- Season with salt, pepper, and vinegar to brighten if needed.
Technique notes diff
- Post-simmer blending | Creates fine particle dispersion and smoother mouthfeel. | Tomato soup is best with velvety texture.
- Layered salting and staged reduction | Incremental seasoning and evaporation increase perceived depth without oversalting late. | Broth-forward dishes need flavor concentration before final texture adjustment.
