Cream of Tomato Soup

This classic Cream of Tomato Soup will be ready in 30 minutes, but tastes like it took hours to make! Then, the soup is topped with fresh tomatoes, parsley and a swirl of cream.

How To Neutralize The Acid In Tomatoes

Tomatoes are acidic, so if you’ve ever had a tomato soup that tasted a bit sour, chances are it may not have had sugar or baking soda in it. Just a pinch of sugar and baking soda help bring out the flavor of the tomatoes while neutralizing their acid.

How To Puree Tomato Soup

You can either use a food processor or blender to puree this soup. Depending on the size of your blender or processor, this could take 2 to 3 batches. Be  sure to keep a bowl on hand to hold the pureed soup while you puree the remaining soup from the Dutch oven. If you have an immersion blender you can puree the soup right from the Dutch oven.
