Tomato Soup with Orange & Basil
3 1/2
tablespoons orange zest, grated
6
tablespoons orange juice
1/4
teaspoon crushed red pepper, to taste
2
teaspoons basil, dried
2
tablespoons fresh basil, sliced
1/4
cup olive oil
2/3
cup carrot, chopped
2
teaspoons garlic, chopped
1 1/2
cups onions, chopped
2
28 oz. cans tomatoes, drained & chopped
6
cups chicken stock
Instructions
In a large pot, heat oil add onions, and carrots cook until softened. Add garlic, dried basil and red pepper, cook another minute. Add stock, tomatoes, 2 teaspoons of orange peel and a pinch of sugar. Simmer uncovered for about 25 minutes. Puree soup, stir in orange juice. Season with additional sugar and salt. Serve and garnish with basil and orange peel.
I use a Proctor/Silex hand blender to Puree, available at Kinney or anywhere for $15. You can blend in your cooking pot and just rinse it off making easy cleanup. a Very handy kitchen tool.
