Homemade Tomato Soup
Wondering if anyone has a recipe for homemade Tomato Soup. I make several different kinds of soup but have never tried making tomato. I’m in charge of making the soup and would like a recipe that someone actually makes before resorting to finding one online.
Bessie I make a few that are tomato-y but not straight tomato. Like my Mexicali soup. It's ez, can be vegetarian, and pretty much diy.
I did see a Pillsbury cream 0 tomato, but you said no online. I might try this one in that it looked ez.
None have I seen starting with fresh tomato.
strangerdanger Im pretty comfortable with making soup from scratch. Being Polish soup runs throughmy veins. I can make sauerkraut soup tomato soup sorrel aka schav soup kid friendly chicken soup and tomato soup i make from chkn soup base..
Only thing is i dont do exact measurements per say.. Trial and error type cooking..
Have you made soup from scratch?
I make soup all the time.. I could eat it all year long! Lmk how i can help
Lina I would be interested in a tried and true recipe too Bessie! Campbells has high fructose corn syrup in it. I tried the Ball blue book this summer while I was tomato canning but every version in there has something else combined with it.
Tomato puree with chicken stock or veg stock sounds like a good start. Hope someone posts one! If not I'm going to try this one. Taste of Home recipes always come from home cooks. https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/simple-tomato-soup
hktownie Funny thing htownie, I would never even try tomato soup because my only memory of tomato soup was Campbells, yuck. I tried the roaster garlic tomato soup at Quick Chek (I think that's what it was) and fell in love with tomato soup, LOL. Now I try it whenever it's on menu somewhere. I had it at Mattars with grilled cheese croutons and it was delicious. So now I'm on the search for a good recipe. Will post it if I find one.
@Lina, I make soup from scratch usually every week or so and bring it to work for lunch. I found a copy recipe of the the vegetable soup from Cracker Barrel and love it, no meat in it, just veggies.
I made this a couple times. Real easy and very good. https://www.google.com/amp/www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/roasted-tomato-basil-soup-recipe-1940376.amp
Roywhite Mattars may give you their recipe- you should ask. They have been known to give out recipes for some things.
RAS Ya know Bess I don’t even know what a food mill is. I used one of those high speed food wand, hand blenders.
My super finicky wife liked it so it musta been/worked good.
Good luck.
Amy's organic Cream of Tomato soup is delicious and no bad ingredients.
I'm fussy about my soup (I also make a lot of soup) and Amy's is excellent.
happiest girlThere goes another one...... After a decade or more, I returned to Campbell's tomato soup this Spring. With whole milk. Loving it, after this thread, I read the contents and there's that high fructose corn syrup.
I will be trying Amy's next......
Another American legend shot down........
It's awful how the hfcs is everywhere. About 2 years ago I noticed it was in Hershey's chocolate syrup. But they have the simply 5 version now that we buy instead.
As soon as the weather cool's down a bit more I'm going to try the soup recipes here. Thanks!
Bessie - This is a little bit different: Start with your best marinara tomato sauce, add chopped basil and flat leaf parsley, sautéed onions, red peppers and garlic, Locatelli Romano cheese, tomato paste and heavy cream. An Italian twist of tomato soup. For those of us who need and crave protein: shrimp, crabs, lobster, beef steak or pork chops can be added to make a complete meal with cheesy twice baked or twice fried potatoes, or toasted brown rice and beans. Plus simple baby spinach salad with soup as dressing.
DannyC Thanks for the recipe roywhite. Made it today and my whole family loved it. It will b in my collection all winter.
kikinj Salmorejo is a very good cold tomato soup that originated in Spain. It's made with tomatoes, bread, olive oil, garlic and sherry vinegar. The bread gives it a bit of creaminess.
