Canned, whole tomatoes provide the base for this creamy soup. They get blended with a few aromatics (the quantities look puny, but a little goes a long way) and a swirl of heavy cream, which rounds out the edges and makes the soup feel like satin (cashew cream would be a delicious non-dairy alternative). You can blend and cook the soup right in a Vitamix, but if you don’t have one, simply blend the soup in a regular blender then heat it on the stovetop. Feel free to swap out the fresh thyme…
