They add sweetness and flavor. The onion and garlic give depth to the soup. Olive oil helps everything roast nicely, creating a rich taste. Vegetable broth is key for a good soup base. Fresh basil brings a delightful touch, while balsamic vinegar adds a hint of tang. If you like some heat, red pepper flakes work great too. - Alternatives for tomatoes: If fresh tomatoes are not available, use canned tomatoes. They still taste great. - Options for vegetable broth: You can use homemade vegetable broth for more flavor. Store-bought broth is also fine and saves time. Using these ingredients or substitutes makes it easy to enjoy a delicious bowl of roasted tomato soup anytime. For more details on how to prepare this dish, check the Full Recipe. Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This temperature helps the tomatoes roast nicely. Next, take a large baking sheet and arrange the halved cherry tomatoes, quartered onion, and peeled garlic cloves on it. Spread them out so they have room to breathe. Now, drizzle about 3 tablespoons of olive oil over the veggies. This oil adds richness and helps them roast evenly. Season everything with salt and pepper. Use your hands to toss the vegetables gently. This ensures they are well-coated and flavorful. Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes. You want to see the tomatoes blister and caramelize. This shows they are ready. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning, as ovens can vary. When done, the smell will fill your kitchen with a warm, inviting scent. Once the vegetables cool slightly, it's time to blend. If you have an immersion blender, it makes the job easy. Simply blend the roasted veggies right in the pot with the broth. If you use a standard blender, blend in small batches. This helps avoid spills and mess. You may want to adjust the soup's texture. If you like it smooth, blend until creamy. If you prefer some chunks, blend less. After blending, taste the soup. Add more salt or pepper if needed. To finish, stir in fresh basil, balsamic vinegar, and red pepper flakes for a kick. For the full recipe, refer to the complete guide. Enjoy your flavorful roasted tomato soup!

Avoid any that are soft or bruised. Fresh garlic and onion also enhance the taste. To prevent burning during roasting, watch the temperature closely. Roasting at 400°F (200°C) works well. Stir the veggies halfway through. This helps them cook evenly and avoids charred bits. If you see them browning too fast, lower the heat a bit. Garnishing your soup can make it special. Add fresh basil for a pop of color and taste. You can drizzle a little olive oil on top too. For a crunchy touch, try adding croutons. When it comes to pairing, crusty bread is a great choice.

Make sure to soak them in cold water for 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch, leading to a crunchier finish. When you roast, place them on a baking sheet in a single layer. This is key. If you overcrowd the sheet, steam forms, and your potatoes won't get crispy. For extra flavor, consider adding fresh herbs like basil or oregano.
