How can I personalize Creamy Tomato Soup?

• Although Campari Tomatoes are reommended, but you can use any kind of fresh tomatoes for this soup.
• Also you can use canned tomatoes in case you do not want to use fresh tomatoes.
• Basil is the main herb here. ALthough I used dry basil, you can use fresh basil leaves. Also you can use Italian seasoning if you like that.
• The best part is that you can make it as thick or as light to your liking. You can skip the corn flour slurry or add more or less of it.
• Also you can easily control the HEAVY CREAM in the soup. Either use it heavily or light or skip it completely.
• The amount of salt, pepper or sugar that you use in the recipe can be easily personalized to your liking.
• Sometimes I add a bit of paprika for that extra kick. SO good.

What are the Ingredients of Tomato Bisque?

As I mentioned earlier, this soup is easy to make because it needs just handful of regular ingredients. Butter - I love using Butter for my Creamy Tomato Soup Recipe. It adds so much more flavor to the soup. But you can use Olive Oil instead if you want to. Tomatoes - I like to use Campari Tomatoes for Tomato Bisque. These are the sweetest & most flavorful tomatoes. In case you can't find these, then tomatoes on the vine are a great choice too. Canned Tomato Sauce - I love using a small can of tomato sauce in the recipe. It adds to the flavors. You can skip it if you want. Aromatics - White/Yellow Onion, Celery, Carrots & Garlic make the base of any soup. I always keep these handy in my refrigerator to make soup anytime. These vegetables not only add flavors to the bisque, but add good nutrition too. Spices - I use Basil, Salt & Black Pepper, & Sugar to flavor the Tomato Basil Soup. Clean flavors. Vegetable Broth - Although I prefer to use vegetable broth in the recipe, sometimes I use water too. It depends upon what is handy at that time. Corn Starch - Although the soup gets pretty thick after blending, corn starch slurry adds restaurant style thickness to the soup. Heavy Cream - Now heavy cream is quintessential ingredient for any restaurant style soup. Don't skip it if you want the same flavors and textures.
