A long time ago that I wanted to make this soup of tomato with Basil. I like a lot to use the tomato in the creams in summer and in my house already know that there is no shortage or gazpacho, salmorejo or truncheon.
But hot tomato soups are also the most. I really like your taste and also sometimes become makeshift sauces that my son is a very fan.
This is this winter after that put the recipe I have come to that after several tests and which is based on the recipe a Turkish friend gave me us at a dinner on Sunday at his home in Brussels. It was very cold and the simple smell of soup hot arriving home I already conquered.
The expectations were met and the tomato soup was a real pleasure. It's funny how it changes the taste of the tomato when it is raw, fried or as in this case roast. He had never roasted tomatoes and is a real pleasure. the House is filled with a special aroma that hypnotizes you and makes you want to open the oven and eat them all.
The secret of this recipe for tomato soup is the time of cooking and of course olive oil Virgin extra which must be of the best quality to look good tomato flavor. you know that I am super fan of oils O-Med that I recommend so don't hesitate if you are looking for a good oil.
Another key factor is the time: the more time in the oven are tomatoes taste better will have and therefore better know our tomato soup. Medium oven and unos30 minutes to make the flavor soak well. Do not makes you the mouth water? To me if so we already go for this rich tomato soup recipe.
- 2 kg red tomatoes

It looks delicious, at home we love tomatoes and this year has reached us late to the field. I've never done tomato soup. I usually do gazpacho since we like more fresh. But I'm going to try it.
A greeting
I claimed I you liked. I hope that you tell me as you will if you do it at the end. I can only tell you that it is delicious. A nice hug
Thank you very much for sharing this recipe (and for all the ones you share). Ever since I found out, rare is the week I don't do it at home. It's delicious ;)
I have a question, could it freeze?
Thanks a lot!
Oh Amparo! I'm so excited to read you. Thank you very much nice and yes, it can freeze perfectly. A huge kiss
How good it is! Easy and delicious. I discovered it last week and we loved it. You will become a regular on home menus.
Thank you!!
Well, what an illusion Crista! I send you a hug,
What you do is the same recipe for salmorejo. Identical. The longing-to-life baton doesn't carry tomato. Just the bread soaked, garlic, AOVE, vinegar and salt. Everything is processed and that's white laporta antequerana. On top of it, it has sliced hard-boiled eggs. My mother was from the "small town", then a pedancy of Antequera. She taught me.
Hello Ana, here everyone can give their opinion without problem, but never in my life I have seen a baton with basil, that serves hot and that carries the roasted tomatoes. Best regards
