Tomato Soup - Martha Stewart - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium yellow onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
24 ounces plum tomatoes, undrained
3 cups low sodium chicken broth, use stock, not broth (or homemade stock)
2 teaspoons sea salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Preparation

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring, until onions have softened, about 15 minutes.
Add tomatoes, chicken stock, salt and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cook until tomatoes, onions and garlic are soft, 10 to 20 minutes.
Working in batches, transfer soup to the jar of a blender and puree until smooth. Return to saucepan and place over medium heat. Cook until soup is heated through. If soup seems too thick, stir in some extra stock to thin. Serve immediately.
