5 Ingredient Tomato Soup
Steps
1
Put the tomatoes, butter, and onion in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Bring it up to a low bubble, then turn the heat to medium low. Cover partially with a lid; let it simmer for 45 minutes. Stir every 15 minutes or so to prevent scorching on the bottom.
2
Remove the onion pieces using tongs. I leave the garlic in there, but that’s up to you!
3
Using an immersion blender, blend up the soup until it’s a smooth as you want it. Taste and adjust; you can thin it out with milk, water, broth, cream, whatever you want; I just leave it as-is!
4
Serve tomato soup with garlic bread, grilled cheese, croutons, crackers, pesto, whatever you like!
Notes
To make this in the Instant Pot: Everything goes in the pot, cook for 20 minutes, and release pressure. Remove onion chunks and blend! The advantage of this method is that you don’t have to babysit it – you can just leave it alone and it won’t burn. Very hands-off. That said, I feel like the flavor of the stovetop version is just slightly sweeter and richer because you get a bit more caramelization, but both methods are amazing.
