Snowflake Tomato Soup
Preparation and cooking time: 25 minutes

2   28-ounce cans crushed tomatoes
1   141⁄2-ounce chicken broth
2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano or 2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1⁄3 cup sour cream

In a blender, process tomatoes, one can at a time, until smooth. Transfer to a large saucepan. Stir in the broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the oregano and sugar. Add a small amount of hot tomato mixture to whipping cream; return all to the saucepan. Cook until slightly thickened (do not boil).

Cut a small hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag; fill with sour cream. Pipe a snowflake on each bowl of soup.

Makes 8 to 10 servings.
