THE BEST TOMATO SOUP EVER:panic:

I'll bet. :yes: Makes me want to make some RIGHT NOW!

charley, what is your favorite variety of fresh tomato? I'm trying to find a great recipe for each of the varieties I will be growing. Sometimes a more acid or a more sweet works best for soup for instance.

That does sound great. Thanks.

Sounds really good! I would be inclined to add some browned ground lamb as a variation.
