Ingredients:

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 medium yellow onion chopped
3 cloves garlic minced
1/4 cup dry white wine such as pinot gris, sauvignon blanc or chardonnay
28 ounces fire roasted tomatoes
3/4 cup vegetable broth
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
salt and pepper
1/2 cup half and half
chopped fresh basil

Instructions

In a large saucepan heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Once butter has melted add onions and garlic, cook until onion is softened about 5 minutes. Pour in wine and allow to cook for 1 minute. Add in crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth and granulated sugar. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low.
Stir in 2 tablespoons of soup into half and half to temper it. Slowly stir tempered half and half into soup and allow to simmer for 30 minutes.
At this point, if you would like a smoother soup, use your immersion blender and process until smooth. Or blend in batches in a regular blender. Season to taste with salt and pepper
Just before serving sprinkle with chopped fresh basil.

Notes

You can substitute chicken (or vegetable) broth for the wine if you don't want to use alcohol.
