Roasted Fresh Tomato Bisque Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
• Combine the tomatoes, olive oil, light brown sugar, carrots, shallots, garlic, dry sherry and some salt and pepper in a mixing bowl and toss to coat. Place the vegetables on the prepared baking sheet and roast until caramelized, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Heat a cast-iron Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat. Add the butter and cook until foaming. Add the crushed red pepper if using and the tomato paste and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the roasted vegetables and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and then lower to a simmer. Let simmer for 15 minutes.
• Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until uniform in texture with a slightly thick consistency. Stir in the heavy cream. For a smoother texture, transfer to a standard blender and puree until smooth. Taste and season if necessary. Serve and garnish with basil leaves and crushed black pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Place tomatoes and onion on a rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with about 1/4 cup olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Roast in the preheated oven until well browned and softened, about 15 minutes. Let cool until ready to use.
• Heat remaining olive oil and tomato juice in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic and the roasted onion; cook until softened, about 10 minutes.
• Chop the roasted tomatoes and add to the soup. Add bell peppers, banana peppers, chicken broth, sugar, and butter. Simmer until vegetables are very tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and puree until smooth in a blender or using an immersion blender.
• Return bisque to the pan and add cream. Simmer over low heat until heated through, about 15 minutes. Garnish with basil.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
• Combine the drained whole tomatoes, olive oil, brown sugar, carrots and shallots in a large bowl and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the vegetables on the baking sheet and roast until caramelized, about 30 minutes.
• Heat a soup pot over medium heat. Add the butter and cook until foaming. Add the red pepper flakes and garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes, then add the sherry. Cook until all the liquid has evaporated and the alcohol has cooked off, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the roasted vegetables, crushed tomatoes and 1 cup chicken stock. Season with salt and pepper, bring to a simmer and cook 15 minutes.
• Working in small batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth. Return to the pot and add more chicken stock to adjust the consistency to how you like it. Taste again and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and top with croutons.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the drained whole tomatoes, olive oil, light brown sugar, carrots and shallots, and toss to coat. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. Place the vegetables on a silicone or parchment-lined baking sheet and roast until caramelized, about 30 minutes.
• Heat a soup pot over medium heat. Add the butter and cook until foaming. Add the crushed red pepper and garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Then add the sherry. Cook until all the liquid has evaporated and the alcohol has cooked off, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the roasted vegetables, crushed tomatoes and 1 cup chicken stock. Season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer. Let simmer for 15 minutes.
• Add the heavy cream and, using an immersion blender, puree the soup until uniform in texture. Add more chicken stock to adjust the consistency to how you like it.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Halve the tomatoes lengthwise and place on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over the tomatoes, and sprinkle over 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Roast the tomatoes for 20 minutes to soften. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• While the tomatoes are roasting, steam the cauliflower in a steamer set over a pot of boiling water. Steam the cauliflower until tender, then remove from heat and set aside.
• Roast the peppers: Place the peppers on a rack set over a gas stove-top burner heated over high heat. Roast until the skin on all sides is charred, turning frequently. Place the peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap and set aside until the peppers are cool enough to handle. Peel the charred skin from the peppers, then stem and seed the peppers. Mince the peppers. You should have about 2 cups (1 pound) minced roasted pepper.
• Combine the roasted tomatoes (with any juices), cauliflower, minced peppers, garlic, lemon juice, tomato juice, tomato paste, basil leaves and vegetable broth in a pot or large bowl. Purée the mixture using an immersion blender, or in batches using a blender, before pushing through a strainer into a heavy-bottom soup pot.
• Bring the soup to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently. Stir in the cream and continue to heat until hot. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and stir in sugar to sweeten as desired.
