In large pot, cook onion in hot butter, covered, on med-low heat for 10 minutes or until tender. Add undrained whole tomatoes, 1/2 cup of the dried tomatoes, tomato paste, broth, celery, and parsley. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes; cool. Meanwhile, cover remaining dried tomatoes with water. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Cool. Drain.
