It is essential to use fresh basil in this soup - do not even think of using dried! If fresh basil is unavailable, pesto sauce may be used instead; this will give a muddier colour and a stronger tasting soup, but it will still be delicious. Garnish with a few basil leaves and serve either hot or cold with granary bread.
