Notes

For a deeper flavor, consider roasting the tomatoes and garlic the day before to enhance their sweetness. If you prefer a chunkier texture, pulse the blended soup rather than pureeing it completely. You can garnish with fresh basil leaves or a drizzle of olive oil for added aroma and presentation. Adjust the seasoning to your taste, and feel free to add a pinch of sugar if the soup tastes too acidic.
