  • 1 ½ cups organic heavy cream (or see vegan option below)
  • 2 cups organic vegetable stock
  • 4 Tbsps organic tomato paste

How to Roast the Tomatoes + Garlic

Roast the tomatoes and garlic bulbs (cut tops off, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil) in the oven at 200°C until blistered and aromatic, around 30–40 minutes.

How to Make the Soup

Blend It All Together:
In a medium Dutch oven over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add chopped onion and sauté for 1–2 minutes until translucent and fragrant.

Transfer sautéed onion to a high-powered blender along with:

  • Roasted tomatoes
  • Garlic (squeeze the roasted garlic from the bulbs)
  • Tomato paste
  • Vegetable stock

Blend on high until smooth and velvety. (Optional: Set aside a few roasted tomato wedges for garnish.)

Simmer and Finish:
Return the blended mixture to your pot. Stir in:

  • Heavy cream
  • Sea salt
  • All-Purpose Blend
  • Smoked paprika

Bring to a boil for 1–2 minutes, then reduce heat to low and let simmer for 5–6 minutes until thickened.

Serve and Enjoy:
Ladle into bowls, top with reserved roasted tomatoes (if using), and serve with grilled cheese on the side for the ultimate cozy meal.

This is the second time we have sold with Ben and both times the result has been outstanding. On a personal level we click and its clear he actually cares about both the sellers and the buyers he is working with. The result we achieved and the sheer quantity of offers received in a dead market shows what an outstanding salesman and marketer Ben (and is his team) is.
