Ingredients You’ll Need:

Before we dive into the step-by-step guide, let’s gather our ingredients:

For the Soup:

  • 6 ripe tomatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 can (14 oz) of diced tomatoes
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (optional)

For the Garnish:

  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Croutons
  • Grated Parmesan cheese

Step 1: Sauté the Aromatics

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions turn translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 2: Add Tomatoes and Broth

Next, add your diced fresh tomatoes and canned tomatoes. Stir in the vegetable broth and sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes.

Step 3: Blend and Season

Once your soup has simmered and the tomatoes are soft, use an immersion blender to puree it until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 4: Add Basil and Cream

Stir in the fresh basil leaves and heavy cream if you desire a creamy texture. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 5: Serve and Garnish

Ladle your homemade tomato soup into bowls. Top with fresh basil leaves, croutons, and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
