2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil


1 frozen diced onion


1 teaspoon minced garlic


1/2 cup dry vermouth


3 (15-ounce) cans roasted diced tomatoes


1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth


10 large fresh basil leaves, chopped, plus more for garnish


1/4 teaspoon salt


1/2 cup cream


In a medium pot over medium high heat, saute diced onions and garlic in olive oil for 1 minute. Add remaining ingredients except for cream. Bring to boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes.


Remove soup from heat. Working in batches, puree soup in blender. NOTE: When blending hot liquids, only fill blender bowl halfway and place kitchen towel over lid. Always start with lower blender settings before puree setting.





Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Return puree to saucepan, add cream and heat through. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh basil.
TOMATO SOUP.--





Cut four ounces of ham into dice; slice two onions, and fry with ham in two ounces of


butter; when browned turn them into a saucepan containing three quarts of stock or corned-beef water, and


add three carrots, two turnips, and one long red pepper, and a dozen outer stalks of celery. Simmer gently for


one hour; then add a quart of canned tomatoes; boil gently for another hour; rub the whole through a sieve,


and simmer again with the liquor a few minutes; add salt, and serve with fried bread crumbs





VEGETABLE SOUP.--





Wash and clean two carrots and two turnips; cut them into slices, and cut each slice


into small narrow strips; put them into a saucepan with four stalks of celery cut into inch pieces, a dozen


button onions, one long red pepper, and a teaspoonful of salt; add three quarts of soup stock; boil until the


vegetables are tender, add a lump of sugar, and serve. The carrots and turnips may be cut into fancy shapes


with a vegetable cutter.
One of my favourites. Add basil to any tomato soup and you'll improve it. Add sour cream, creme fraiche or yoghurt and it will be even better.
i think you just have to mix the tomato soup base and whatever you like in your food that makes it taste good and add the basil voila there you go your own tomato basil soup!!!
