INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Halve tomatoes lengthwise and lay them cut
sides down in a jelly-roll pan. Brush generously with 3 tablespoons oil and
sprinkle with garlic, oregano, basil, and pepper. Roast tomatoes until
their edges are charred, about 15 to 20. Scrape tomatoes, oil, and herbs
from pan into food processor. Process until not quite smooth (leaving small
chunks and charred black specks).
In a saucepan cook onion in remaining 2 tablespoons oil until translucent.
Whisk in roasted tomato puree, broth, and wine. Then whisk tomato paste.
Heat the cream and whisk in to the tomato mixture. Taste and add sugar if
necessary. Stir in optional Parmesan. Add salt and pepper to taste and
bring soup to a simmer.
Yield: 6 servings
