Honey Tips
Honey Is Sweeter Than Sugar
Due to the high level of fructose, honey is 25% sweeter than table sugar.
Directions
Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Place tomato halves, cut side down on the prepared pan. Broil about 10 minutes until skins begin to blister and brown. Watch carefully. Remove from oven and cool. Remove skin from tomatoes. Chop tomatoes coarsely.
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan. Add onions and sauté until softened about 5 minutes. Add garlic and continue cooking 3 more minutes. Stir in chopped tomatoes. Pour mixture into a food processor or blender and process until smooth.
Return to saucepan, stir in broth and honey. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in basil and salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until well chilled.
