have always made my own tomato soup, and frozen in containers. This years lot is too rich for me. What could it be that it is too rich,,? the tomoatoes, or too much butter. just very rich

I'm not clear about what "too rich" means. Do you mean too fatty? Too intensely flavoured? Too thick?

maybe what I meant to say. too tomatoey ?. then again had some for lunch and realise it is also too sweet. I guess some tomatoes are more flavoursome than others. will cut back on sugar next year.

Try a spoonful of sour cream on top when serving, sprinkled with a few chopped chives might help. I only put a tblsp sugar in mine.

different tomatoes types will change the flavor

I wouldn't add any sugar to tomato soup at all.

Thanks korbo. I'm sure others will appreciate it as well, especially when tomato season rolls round.

Adapted for soup maker. 500g tomatoes, skin removed 1 small onion 1 rasher of bacon Make up to minimum mark with stock or water Cook on smooth As soon as finished cooking add 1 Tablespoon sago. Leave to cool. Adjust thickness with milk after reheating and before serving. Reheat further if necessary but don't boil. Season to taste. I find many bought tomato soups and recipes too sweet.
