Method

If using fresh tomatoes, roast 220°C (425°F) on the middle rack with the garlic and oil for 25 minutes.
In the pot, soften the onion; add the tomato paste; add the tomatoes and the stock. Simmer for 15 minutes.
Blend until smooth (stick blender in the pot). Add the basil and the cream; season to taste.
Mount with butter. Serve with cheddar toast soldiers or classic grilled cheese.

Cook's Notes: A parmesan rind simmered in the pot is excellent. For brighter soup, add a splash of sherry vinegar.
