My brother created this knock-off recipe for his wife's favorite soup from a french bakery, 3 hours away from home. It's better than the real thing!
Ingredients:
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups tomato juice
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans tomatoes
12 fresh basil leaves
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 lb unsalted butter
Directions:
1. Combine stock, tomato juice, and tomatoes in pot and simmer for 25 minutes.
2. Add basil and simmer 5 minutes more.
3. Puree the mixture in batches in a blender.
4. Pour soup back into the pot, over low heat add the cream and butter until blended.
