Tomato Soup

Tomatoes simmered with vegetable stock and finished with heavy cream and butter, a smooth soup often paired with a grilled cheese sandwich.

Where it comes from

Canned tomatoes made this soup possible year-round, once canning let households keep tomatoes on hand through winter instead of only at harvest.

What cooks argue about

The fight is over straining the soup after blending for a fully smooth texture, or leaving it unstrained, which keeps some skin and seed texture but takes less time.

Nobody has published a tomato soup recipe yet. The page stays out of search until one exists, which is the rule for every thin page here.
