This soup is sooooo fresh tasting. Those canned tomato soups shouldn't even call themselves tomato soup!
Ingredients:
18 - 20 tomatoes, blanched and peeled
2 yellow onions chopped
4 carrots thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsps brown sugar
1/4 cup fresh basil (divided, add half at beginning of cooking and half when soup is removed from heat)
2 tsp dried parsley
2 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
4 cups chicken broth
To blanch the tomatoes simply drop them (gently) into a pot of boiling water. Remove when the skins wrinkle a bit, 30-60 seconds and place them in a bowl of cold water. Peel and chop them.
Place all ingredients in a slow cooker and set on low for 6 hours or until vegetables (especially the carrots) are soft.
Purée using a food processor or immersion hand blender.
This soup can easily be frozen too.
