OLIVINO ROASTED TOMATO BASIL SOUP
Makes approximately 8–10 servings
Ingredients:
• 6 Roma tomatoes, halved
• 1 large yellow onion, cut into chunks
• 1 whole head of garlic
• ¼ cup Olivino Basil Olive Oil, divided
• Salt + freshly ground black pepper
• 2 (28 oz) cans whole peeled tomatoes
• 3 Tbsp tomato paste
• 3 cups chicken broth
• ⅛–¼ tsp red pepper flakes
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 cup heavy cream
• ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 1 Tbsp Olivino Traditional Balsamic, plus more to taste
• Handful of fresh basil, optional
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Place the halved Roma tomatoes and chopped onion on a sheet pan. Cut the top off the head of garlic to expose the cloves, drizzle with Basil Olive Oil and wrap loosely in foil.
3. Drizzle the tomatoes and onion generously with Olivino Basil Olive Oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast everything for 35–45 minutes, until the tomatoes are caramelized around the edges and the garlic is soft.
4. Heat a drizzle of Basil Olive Oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the tomato paste and cook for 2–3 minutes, until it deepens to a darker red.
5. Add the roasted tomatoes and onion, all of those flavorful juices from the pan, and squeeze in the roasted garlic. Add the canned tomatoes with their juices, chicken broth, red pepper flakes and Worcestershire sauce.
6. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook uncovered for 20–25 minutes.
7. Add fresh basil, if using, then blend until smooth and creamy.
8. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan and butter until melted and silky.
9. Finish with 1 tablespoon Olivino Traditional Balsamic. Taste and add another small splash if desired. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
Serve warm with fresh Parmesan, basil and a finishing drizzle of Olivino Basil Olive Oil. 🍅🌿
The Basil Olive Oil brings the herby flavor throughout the soup, while the Traditional Balsamic adds just the right touch of sweetness and depth to those roasted tomatoes.
Save this one for your next cozy fall night! 🍂
