How To Make creamy tomato & thyme bisque

  • 1
    In large saucepan melt butter over medium high, reduce heat medium. Add Strained tomatoes (there will be some liquid left in tomato and that is good). Cook for about 1 minute. Add garlic and continue cooking for 3 minutes.

    This part is tricky and hopefully not too confusing...Using a slotted spoon scoop out the tomatoes and transfer to a food processor (smallest one you have, I use a 2 cup one). Sprinkle with remaining flour and blend until smooth. Return to saucepan and mix well.
