Instructions
Step 1: In a large soup pot, heat up the olive oil.
Ingredients:
- olive oil
- soup
Equipment:
- pot
Step 2: Add the onions and cook slowly, on medium heat until they start to caramelize. They should be evenly brown and soft. Cooking them this way brings out the natural sweetness in the onions.
Ingredients:
- onion
Step 3: Add the garlic and dried herbs and cook for 5 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the 1/2 cup of red wine and cook for 2 minutes more.
Ingredients:
- dried herbs
- red wine
- garlic
Equipment:
- frying pan
Step 4: Add the tomatoes and their juice and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook on low, stirring occasionally for about 2 hours.
Ingredients:
- tomato
- juice
Step 5: Add salt and pepper to taste.Dried herbs hold their flavor much longer than fresh herbs so when slow cooking. If you want to use fresh herbs, add them at then end of the cooking process, just before serving.If you dont have fresh tomatoes, you can use 2 (28 oz) cans of crushed tomatoes, 1 (28 oz) can of whole tomatoes and 1 (6 oz) can of tomato paste. When I use canned tomatoes, I always add a couple tablespoons of sugar to counteract the acidity of the canned tomatoes. I find I dont have to add any sugar with the ripe tomatoes from my garden.
Ingredients:
- crushed tomatoes
- canned tomatoes
- salt and pepper
- whole tomato
- tomato paste
- dried herbs
- fresh herbs
