Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Spread bacon in a soup pot over medium heat, and brown. Using a slotted spoon, move bacon to a bowl, and pour off fat from pot. Return pot to heat, and sprinkle in the olive oil, onions, garlic and a pinch of salt. Stir to coat, and cook for 10 minutes. Sprinkle in the sugar and continue cooking until onions are silky and well caramelized.

  2. Step 2

    Add tomatoes and broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for a few minutes, then stir in bacon, oregano and rosemary. Season to taste with salt.

  3. Step 3

    Lay a piece of toasted bread in each of four warmed bowls. Ladle soup on top; bread should rise to surface. Sprinkle cheese on top, season with coarsely ground black pepper, and serve.
