This was a very tasty soup, quite redolent of basil. I think it is a good late-summer recipe for using up the remaining basil and tomatoes in the garden. Roasting the tomatoes is a great remedy for tomatoes that didn't ripen fully. Contrary to what Ina says, I don't think you could make this all winter long, as fresh basil isn't available/cheap then, although I suppose you could substitute frozen, pureed basil. I halved the amounts and still made enough soup for three or four meals, so some will go in the freezer.
