    Marla

    List of Ingredients




    4 cups tomatoes (8 to 10), peeled, cored and chopped,
    4 cups unsalted tomato juice
    12 to 14 fresh basil leaves, plus additional for garnish, chopped
    1 cup whipping cream
    1/2 cup sweet, unsalted butter, softened
    1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
    Salt to taste
    Crusty bread

    Recipe



    Combine tomatoes and juice in saucepan. Simmer for 30 minutes over medium-low heat. Cool
    slightly, then place in a blender or food processor. Add basil and process to puree; this will have
    to be done in batches.

    Return mixture to saucepan. Add cream and butter. Stir over low heat until butter and cream are
    incorporated. Stir in salt and pepper before serving. Garnish with more fresh basil and serve with
    fresh, crusty bread. Makes 8 servings.
