I picked up a copy of Ina Garten’s The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook and discovered a recipe for Roasted Tomato Basil Soup. I had made many tomato soups, usually using canned tomatoes, not fresh.
I've spent years cooking all 1,300+ of the celebrity chef Ina Garten's recipes ... time favorite Ina recipe, it would be this one. Pasta, sausage, and tender fennel in a tomato cream sauce?
