Note

The recipe lists "Canned Tomatoes (fresh, 4" which likely implies using either canned or fresh tomatoes. If using fresh, ensure they are peeled and chopped.

The addition of soda (baking soda) helps neutralize the acidity of the tomatoes and causes a temporary foam. Do not worry about this reaction; it is normal.

For a vegan version, substitute dairy milk with unsweetened almond or oat milk, and use vegan butter or olive oil instead of dairy butter.

Cornstarch can be used as a thickener substitute for flour if preferred, though it may result in a slightly different texture.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of water or milk if the soup has thickened too much.
