Don't boil. Roast the tomatoes.

Wink's recipe is good.

I did a bacon-tomato creamy soup last week. It was a little too bacon-y, but I plan to keep the process sans bacon next time. Came out a creamy La Madeleine-esq soup.

Look at the recipe for Ina's Roasted Tomato Basil Soup My Way on Page 7 of the recipe thread. Delicious. Definitely roast the tomatoes. Much deeper flavor.

America's Test Kitchen had a great one, but that one with roasted tomatoes looks just as good.

Roast them a good long time and I put a little chicken stock on the pan and deglazed it to get the caramelized parts off and then I poured that into the pot. I used nonstick foil which worked well.

I hope you like it. I got a lot of kudos for it and repeat requests after I made it several times.

Roasted the tomatoes for 80 min, simmering on the stove

Wish I had some right now. I do have some of the roasted tomato mixture in the freezer. I made up a bunch when I had a lot of tomatoes that needed to be used. Makes a good pizza sauce or sauce for pasta, also.

Glad to hear it. I think it's definitely a keeper. When you next feel like it, get a ton of Roma tomatoes and roast them up with the herbs you like. Vac seal in packs and you can have the soup, a quick pasta or pizza sauce or put it over cream cheese, whatever...,but it's good to have around and it freezes very well.

Must have carrot in it to add a touch of sweetness

Caramelizing and roasting the tomatoes brings out the sweetness. I didn't find that it needed any at all, but you could add roasted carrots to the mix.
