Tomato Bisque For Uncle Vic

I came up with this recipe the other night and thought my uncle vic would appreciate it. It's beautiful with homegrown tomatoes and intensely flavored as the only liquid involved comes from the tomatoes themselves. Serve with croutons or a dollop of sour cream...tasty!!

Steps

On medium heat saute onions in butter till they caramelize.
After onions have browned add the tomatoes , bouillon , sun-dried tomatoes , herbs , salt and pepper.
Turn up heat and bring to a boil.
Once mix begins to boil , reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes.
Process in blender till smooth.
Return to pot and heat on low setting.
Stir in cream.
Serve immediately.
Fill the blender , at the most , half full.
Begin blending on a low setting while holding the lid firmly down.
If you overfill the blender , or begin blending on a high setting , or do not hold the lid down steam builds up under the lid and the hot contents will shoot out of the blender spraying you and your kitchen in molten chunks of burning hot bisque bits.
Both painful and grotesque.
Be warned.
