1 teaspoon brown sugar |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
2/3 cup crumbled stilton cheese or 2/3 cup other blue cheese |
1/8 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Place tomatoes with their juice in a medium bowl; crush tomatoes well, into small pieces, with a potato masher. 2. In a 3-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium-low heat. Add onion and celery; cover and cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in tomatoes, broth, wine, sugar and thyme; heat to boiling over high heat.
