Tomato Soup

Submitted By Beth Dodson Beckham

Cook 6-8 medium, ripe tomatoes and 2 Tbsp
chopped onion until onions are tender. Add ½ tsp
baking soda and 2 Tbsp margarine. Then add 3 cups
milk or more according to amount you want to
make. Add 2 Tbsp corn starch or flour to 1 cup of
milk. Salt and pepper to taste. Be sure to add the
soda to the mixture before the milk or milk will
curdle.

This recipe came from a 100-year-old woman. I had
tried without success to make my Mom's tomato
soup like this. The soda was the cure. Before, my milk
always clabbered. Now I can enjoy a food from my
childhood.
