Tomato Soup
Read my review of this recipe.
Ingredients:
- 28 ounces canned tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 garlic clove, sliced
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons white sugar, or to taste
Directions:
In a saucepan, over medium heat, sauteed onion and garlic in the oil until softened. Add the tomatoes and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, and gently boil for about 20 minutes to blend all of the flavors. Pour the mixture into a blender and blend until smooth.
In the now empty saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to make a roux, and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk the tomato mixture into the flour mixture so that no lumps form. Season with sugar and salt, and adjust to taste.
