A tomato is a fruit, so it shouldn't be in a tin of veg soup.

Particularly so much of it. I had a tin today swimming in it. )(-red

;)
 
So make your own - I prepare a Soup each Saturday lunchtime and they are infinitely better than tinned muck.
 
If you want it from a tin, try scotch broth.
 
Like Tivu, I suggest making a huge amount of your own, and freezing it.

Not only much better, but much cheaper.
 
I'll have to look up some recipes, but I agree Scotch Broth is nice. ;)
 
Not just for Scotch Broth, but I often pop some Pearl Barley into my creations. Helps thickening and flavour whilst also making it more chunky.


And you don't really need recipes once you made a few: Large knob of butter > Chop chosen veg and sweat in butter until soft > Add stock and simmer for yonks > Blitz the lot or retain some of the unblitzed stuff to add back later > Put blitzed (and unblitzed) stuff back in pan > Reheat > Adjust seasoning > Serve
 
Rolf!

We need a recipes section.
 
We have one.:)
 
Gawd.

That's even more time I shall be spending on this Forum!
