    With the fresh tomatoes in season, oh this is so good, even chilled.
    Tomato Soup #2, w/fresh

    2 teaspoons Olive oil
    1 medium onion, thinly sliced
    5 medium very ripe tomatoes, cored and
    cut into 8 pieces each
    1 clove garlic, crushed
    1 sprig fresh thyme, chopped
    pinch of sugar
    2 1/2 cups chicken stock
    1/2 cup whole milk (optional)
    salt and pepper to taste

    Warm the oil in a medium nonstick saucepan over medium-
    low heat. Add the onions and cook for 10 minutes or until
    very soft but not brown. Add the tomatoes, garlic, thyme
    and sugar. Raise the heat to medium and simmer for 10
    minutes. Stir in the sto-ck and bring to a boil, then boil for
    two minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
    Transfer to a blender or food processor fitted with the metal
    blade. Process until smooth.
    Strain the soup through a medium fine sieve into a clean
    saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce
    the heat to medium-low. Stir in the milk (if using). Season
    with the salt and pepper. Simmer for 1 minutes.
    Makes 4 servings.

    Place equal portions in shallow soup bowls and garnish with
    soup crackers.
