Pioneer Woman Tomato Soup

Pioneer Woman Tomato Soup

Erin Table for Seven
This Pioneer woman soup is everything I want tomato soup to be! It’s rich and creamy, yet doesn’t weigh me down. It’s bursting with amazing tomato flavor, yet it’s made from canned tomatoes.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 yellow onions 3 cups, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves 1 tablespoon, minced
  • 56 ounces crushed tomatoes two 28 ounce cans with their juice, preferably San Marzano
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil plus more to serve
  • 1 tablespoon sugar or added to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream or to taste to combat acidity
  • cup parmesan cheese freshly grated, plus more to serve

Instructions
 

  • Heat a non-reactive pot or enameled Dutch oven over medium heat. Melt butter and chopped onions.
  • Cook 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden. Add minced garlic and cook 1 minute, until fragrant.
  • Add crushed tomatoes with juice, chicken stock, chopped basil, sugar (or sugar to taste), and black pepper to taste.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat, partially cover with a lid, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • For a blended/creamy soup, use an immersion blender to blend the soup in the pot to desired consistency or transfer to a blender in batches and blend until smooth (be careful not to overfill the blender with hot liquid), then return blended soup to the pot over medium heat.
  • Stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese. If needed, season with salt and pepper and turn off the heat.
  • Serve in warm bowls, topped with fresh basil and more parmesan.

Notes

  • Crushed tomatoes can sometimes seem tangier. If the soup seems too sour or acidic, add more heavy cream and sugar to taste.
