Does anyone have a good recipe for bass?

Anyone know a good tomato basil soup recipe like Jason's Deli?

• I love the Jason's Deli Tomato Basil Soup, but I can't find a recipe anywhere and we don't have one where I now live. :( Anyone know the recipe or have a similar one? Thanks.

• Answer:

  La Madeline's Tomato Basil Soup Recipe 4 cups crushed tomatoes (I used a little more--a 28 oz can and a 14 oz can) 4 c tomato juice or chicken broth (I used broth) Simmer these together over medium heat for 30 min. Puree in small batches in blender or food processor with 14 basil leaves. (this is important. you're after smooth soup) Add: 1 cup heavy cream 1/4 lb butter salt and pepper to taste Heat through, being careful not to boil. This was really good. Not quite La Madeline's, but very good nonetheless. NOTE: An e-mailer suggests that the secret ingredient might be lemon juice. Add to taste, using a small amount first. --------------------------------------… Roasted Tomato Basil Soup 3 pounds ripe plum tomatoes, cut in half 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons good olive oil 1 tablespoon kosher salt 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper 2 cups chopped yellow onions (2 onions) 6 garlic cloves, minced 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes 1 (28-ounce) canned plum tomatoes, with their juice 4 cups fresh basil leaves, packed 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves 1 quart chicken stock or water Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss together the tomatoes, 1/4 cup olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the tomatoes in 1 layer on a baking sheet and roast for 45 minutes. In an 8-quart stockpot over medium heat, saute the onions and garlic with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the butter, and red pepper flakes for 10 minutes, until the onions start to brown. Add the canned tomatoes, basil, thyme, and chicken stock. Add the oven-roasted tomatoes, including the liquid on the baking sheet. Bring to a boil and simmer uncovered for 40 minutes. Pass through a food mill fitted with the coarsest blade. Taste for seasonings. Serve hot or cold.
