Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes
Course Appetizer, dinner, lunch
Cuisine American, Italian
Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 12-15 whole tomatoes on the vine
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 3 oz tomato paste
  • 6 cloves garlic smashed
  • 1 tbs salt
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 2 tbs dry Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • to taste sour cream for serving

Instructions
 

  • In an instant pot, add all of the tomatoes and 2 cups of stock. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. This will cook the tomatoes down and allow for easy peeling.
  • After the 10 minutes are up, remove the peel (it’s ok if a little of the peel is left in there because you’ll end up blending it. If you like it super smooth then you can use a sifter )
  • Add the seasoning, garlic and tomato paste. Lock the lid and cook on high for another 30 minutes.
  • Open the instant pot, add the cream and blend with an immersion blender. Leave the soup on warm or saute mode to make sure it’s nice and warm.
  • Adjust the salt as needed and top with a dollop of sour cream!
