Ingredients Needed
Fresh tomatoes– You can experiment with different tomatoes you are growing, or from the store. Standard tomatoes, tomatoes on the vine, and romas all work great. Cherry tomatoes will have more seeds and tend to have a more acidic taste. Onion – yellow or white, but red works great if that’s what you’ve got. Fresh garlic – fresh works best, as opposed to garlic powder, or bottled garlic. Carrot – 1 carrot adds sweetness and also neutralizes tomato acidity Olive Oil Kosher Salt and Black Pepper Boursin Cheese – any flavor variety. This is a soft cheese similar to cream cheese, flavored with garlic and herbs. It adds delicious flavor and a silky texture to this soup. Look for it in the cheese section that’s usually near the deli with specialty cheeses. It may also be found near the cream cheese. I buy it in a 3-pack at Costco for a great price! If you can’t find it, I bet that a garlic and chive cream cheese would be a good substitute. Basil – fresh if you have it, or dried is just fine Balsamic Vinegar Beef Broth – beef broth may seem like a strange addition here, but I learned years ago that it pairs particularly well with tomato based soups and sauces. It does not impart any “beefy” flavor, it simply enhances the tomato flavor. That being said, you can feel free to substitute vegetable or chicken broth.
