Recipe in original form as I found it:
1/2 gallon canned tomatoes
1 qt. cream
1/4 cup dried basil
1 cup parmesan cheese
3 tbsp sugar
salt and pepper to taste
In a large sauce pot, mix the cream and tomatoes together and bring to a boil.
Blend the soup with an immersion blender and add in the basil and cheese.
Season with the salt, pepper, and sugar.
Serve.
My way:
28 oz. Cans of crushed tomatoes, with basil & herbs(already pureed)
1 pint of heavy cream
1/4 C parmesan cheese
3 T sugar
salt and peppter to taste
In a large pan bring tomatoes and cream to a boil. Add in cheese. Season to taste with sugar,salt, and pepper.
Notes:
The already seasoned and pureed tomatoes are seasoned perfectly and really make the recipe simple & quick. This recipe does make a rather large batch of soup, however, it turns out beautiful and delicious-perfect for guests!
