YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>........................
Ingredients
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon minced bacon... aw hell, make it 10 tablespoons :-)
1 Spanish onion, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
5 cups organic or homemade chicken broth
5 organic peeled tomatoes, roughly chopped and use the juice too.
3 parsley sprigs
3 fresh thyme sprigs
1 bay leaf
1 cup heavy cream
1 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt (I use pink - thanks Robb!)
Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Heat the butter in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring, until crisp and most of the fat has rendered, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Lower the heat to medium, add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until soft and fragrant, about 8 minutes.
Stir in the flour and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Pour in the broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil while whisking constantly. Tie the parsley sprigs, thyme, and bay leaf together with a piece of kitchen twine and add to the pot. Lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
When the soup base is cool, remove and discard the herb bundle. Working in batches, transfer the mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Using a sieve over a large bowl, strain the tomato puree. Return the puree to the pot and reheat over medium heat.
Whisk the heavy cream and salt into the soup and season with pepper to taste. Divide among warm soup bowls, garnish with the crispy bacon, and serve immediately.

Nice recipe. And it stays true to the definition of "bisque", which is a thick, creamy soup. I've seen a few similar recipes which didn't call for the puree step, which really meant that they were "tomato stew". I probably would substitute some basil for he bay leaf though.....just a personal preference of the Czarina's. I've got lots of tomatoes right now...think I'll ask her if she wants to give this a try....
