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

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.
