tomato soup without milk/cream 1 qt. tomatoes crushed or blended (or tomatoe juice) salt and peper to taste pat of butter (optional) 1/2 tsp baking soda THIS TAKES THE ACID OUT AND IS NOT REALLY NEEDED UNLESS YOU ADD MILK/CREAM bring tomatoes to a boil remove from heat. add baking soda ( use a deep pan as this will foam up) as soon as foam settles eat up!
for creamy tomato soup just add milk or cream to the above (after you've done the soda) till the consistancy you like. reheat if needed from the cold milk
RE: Tomato Soup Recipe
I'm sorry but I equate Tomato Soup with all childhood illnesses! LOL My mom and grandmother knew of NO other food than this when I was ill. I haven't had more than two cans since I became an adult. I've tried to get over this, but this association is imprinted in my brain, so I avoid any thought of eating Tomato Soup although it MAY have helped to keep me well? This MIGHT not have happened to me had they alternated with TYPES of soups, a good tip for moms!
God bless mothers who nurse their sick children with soups, a proven? food to feed them MOST of the time. : )
RE: Tomato Soup Recipe
While this doesn't give you answers, it might make searching a bit more pleasant. I just had to mention what Tomato Soup brings to my mind:
Back in the 60's when there were plenty of Hippies and other weirdo's (no offense to anyone or their parents, lol), Abby Hoffman, a strange and crazy man who promoted all things possible, including a book he wrote(and published with no money?) called, "Steal This Book", he mentioned to all Hippies/readers that if times got so bad that they had no food, that they should just find a fast food who'd GIVE them two packets of ketchup, one packet of chopped onions, one packet of relish, and a cup of hot water from their coffee maker. Voila! FREE Tomato Soup! !
What struck me as even funnier, was the fact that he claimed that a person could LIVE on JUST THIS for several MONTHS! I have always wondered......LOL Has anyone reading this ever DONE THAT?
God bless HONEST folks who have found jobs that support a better life than that! : )

In reference to making homemade Cream Of Tomato soup, here is a saying that will help your tomato soup not to curdle:
"Add Red to White and You Will Never Be Blue".
In other words, heat the tomatoes and milk in separte pans. add the hot tomatoes to the milk so it will not curdle. Got it?
In essence, if you add the hot tomatoes to the hot milk, you won't be sad with the results as it will not curdle.

RE: Tomato Soup Recipe
As a long-time vegetarian, I love to cook soups without benefit of any meat products. Lipton Onion soup packets make a great start, water, canned stewed tomatoes (or fresh, if you have), cabbage, sliced thin, onions, carrots .... Place all in a large pot, simmer for an hour and it's just the nicest meal going. I've also got a great gazpacho recipe (my favourite snack). If you'd like that, let me know. wordswork AT telusplanet.net

My mom used to make a Tomato Soup with canned tomatoes, milk and baking soda. I remember something that the milk had to be just the right temp and before she added the tomatoes. Does anyone know how to make it this way?

RE: Tomato Soup Recipe
I make homemade tomato soup with canned tomatoes all the time. I love tomato soup and grilled cheese for a quick lunch. I put my tomatoes into a sauce pan and heat them until they just start to simmer (low boil). I then add a pinch or 2 of baking soda to neutralize the acidity of the tomatoes. It will foam slightly and that tells you it is working. Add milk and heat again to simmer, add salt and pepper maybe a little butter or any other seasonings you prefer. Taste and adjust seasoning and serve hot. Hope you enjoy (12/30/2005)

RE: Tomato Soup Recipe
Back in the "old days" they used to call this soup Tomato bisque. My mom amd grandmom used to make it all the time. It's just milk, tomato soup a dash of soda and canned tomatoes, do not let your milk get to a boil. Just a simmer. Add salt, and pepper to taste. We never really had a recipe for it just eyeball how much you want to make and go from there. WE used one can of tomatoes to two cans tomato soup and two cans milk . (12/31/2005)
