How to Make Nordstrom's Tomato Basil Soup Small Batch
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add 1 medium chopped carrot and 1/2 medium chopped yellow onion. Cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon dried basil and cook for another 5 minutes, until vegetables are completely tender.
- Add 28 ounces of crushed tomatoes and 4 cups of broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 30-45 minutes.
- Let the soup cool slightly. Carefully puree until smooth using a blender, food processor, or immersion blender.
- For an exceptionally smooth texture, strain the pureed soup through a fine-mesh sieve before returning it to the pot.
- Temper the Mexican crema (or heavy cream) by slowly whisking a small amount of the hot soup into it. Gradually whisk the tempered crema into the soup over low heat, until you reach your desired consistency. Do not boil!
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm and enjoy!
