Materials

  • 3 pounds Fresh Tomatoes roughly diced
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 1 large Onion diced
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil divided + more for serving
  • 1 tablespoon Butter
  • 2 large Carrots peeled + diced
  • 1 small Celery Root peeled + diced
  • Salt + Pepper to taste
  • 4 large Basil Leaves chopped + more for serving
  • 2 sprigs Fresh Thyme leaves removed
  • 1 tablespoon Tomato Paste
  • 2 cups Chicken Broth
  • 1/2 - 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1/2 - 1 cup Heavy Cream

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Roughly dice your tomatoes and add them to a sheet pan with your garlic and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a bit of salt. Now roast for 30 minutes, turning half way through.
  • Next, dice your onions and add them to a large pot with the olive oil, butter and 1/2 tsp salt. Cook on medium-low for around 5 minutes while you dice your carrots and celery root. Add those to the pot and continue to cook for another 5-10 minutes, until your veggies are beginning to soften and your onions are starting to color.
  • Then add your roasted tomatoes + garlic, tomato paste, chicken broth and fresh herbs to the pot and let that cook on medium-low for 30 minutes. This will give the flavors a chance to further develop.
  • Very carefully puree your mixture using either a traditional blender or immersion blender. Taste and then add desired amount of honey and salt (or soup base).
  • Finally, add your desired amount of cream and stir to combine. Serve with your favorite dipping sandwich!
