Steps:
- Chop the tomatoes (large dice) and rough chop the basil; place all the ingredients into a blender, in batches, and process only a few seconds so that you get a coarse chop, not a pulp.
- Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Place all the ingredients into a cheesecloth bag that you fashion, and suspend over a bowl for 6 hours or overnight; discard the first few red drops, then the liquid will be clear. Do not squeeze the bag or you will color the liquid.
- Spoon into individual serving bowls and garnish as desired.

CLEAR TOMATO SOUP WITH HERB CREPES
Steps:
- In a blender, combine the flour, milk, water, egg, egg white, and salt and blend until smooth. Pour into a measuring cup with a lip and stir in the herbs. Cover and leave to rest for 10 minutes. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of the clarified butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the pan and tilt it in all directions so that it forms a thin coating, then quickly pour out any excess. Cook until the bottom of the crepe is lightly browned, lifting up the edges to check, then flip over and cook for 15 to 20 seconds more. Remove from the pan, add little more butter, and make the next crepe the same way. Continue until you have used all the batter. Pile the crepes up, roll them into a tube, and thinly slice them crosswise into a julienne. Set aside until ready to serve.
- In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, puree the tomatoes for 3 to 4 minutes, pulsing on and off and scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary untilt he puree is very smooth and watery. Pour the puree into a large saucepan, add the egg whites and the salt and whisk together. Slowly bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking constantly so that the liquid doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot. When the liquid comes to a boil, reduce the heat to very low, so that it just barely simmers, and allow to cook completely undisturbed for 5 minutes.
- Line a sieve with a double-thickness of slightly dampened cheesecloth. Without disturbing the crust of egg white which has formed, slowly pour the soup through the sieve into a clean pan (all the skin and impurities will be left behind, with the egg whites, in the sieve). Drain in the sieve for 15 minutes, then gently reheat just before serving.
- Add pepper to taste and serve in warmed bowls, each one garnished with a little jumbe of the slivered herb crepes.
CLEAR TOMATO SOUP
This recipe is so simple, but so yummy. It is very satisfying on a cold night, and comes in handy when you want to make something quick and flavorful. This is my own recipe which I developed because when I was making my "Intoxicating, Sinful, Just plain delicious MARINARA SAUCE" recipe, I always had tons of leftover tomato juice that I didn't want to keep wasting. I decided to make soup and ended up getting a "free meal" so to speak. So, this meal is three things: economical, efficient, and comforting to eat.

Steps:
- Put all the ingredients in a saucepan and cook on medium heat.
- Let it cook to thicken up a little and for the flavors to mature.
- Serve with cheesebread or Croutons.
- I make my cheesebread by taking a slice of white bread with a little mayo, and a thin slice of mozarella or cheddar cheese put under the broiler.
- I make my croutons by cutting day old white bread into squares, sticking it on a cooking sheet at 350 degrees until hard. Then put into a bowl with melted butter and dry basil and oregano. Voila!
