8. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil if desired. Serve warm with bread or grilled cheese.
Notes
Use high-quality canned crushed tomatoes for the best flavor.
Blending the soup creates the classic smooth tomato soup texture.
Add the cream slowly and avoid boiling afterward to prevent curdling.
Taste and adjust salt carefully depending on the broth used.
For extra flavor, add a small pinch of red chili flakes while simmering.
Fresh basil adds a wonderful aroma and garnish.
