  I just made this soup. It was so yummy even my three fussy kids loved it. I added a teaspoon brown sugar an extra tin of tomatoes and a dash of worcestershire sauce. So easy to make I don't think I will ever buy another tin of tomato soup again!.

  Very easy to make, but quite a bland soup, and not that creamy. My 7 year old told me it tasted of nothing. Should have heeded other comments and doubled up on tomatoes.

  Delicious: I agree that you need to up the quantity of Tomatoes, I made it a second time and added a pinch of Chilli Flakes, this gave it a slightly spicey lift which worked realy well! Best Tomato Soup Recipe I've found........

  Made this today and it tasted really nice - follwed the suggestions to double up the tomatoes and the puree and added plenty of seasoning. Will definitely make again. Can anyone explain the purpose of the baking soda?

  Tastes amazing! I did as suggested above and doubled the amount of tomatoes + paste. I also added two teaspoons of pesto (but if i had more, i probably would have added more) and a splash of tarragon vinegar. Since my family do not generally like milky things, we didn't add the milk. Instead, we added spoons of natural yogurt to the serving bowls at the table. It tasted great! I served it with this bread http://www.food.com/recipe/crusty-french-bread-101476. My family enjoyed it and there was enough bread for breakfast the next day!

  As suggested I doubled up the tomato, added more puree and a stock cube to give it depth. Mine curdled so added 4 pinches of soda in the end to rectify this. It tastes quite nice but it's not now like the recipe.

  The milk in mine also curdled! Yeuck! Should I have let the tomato base cool down first before adding baking soda and milk mix?

  Fantastic, I doubled the tomato puree and tomatoes, and used just over half the milk, plus the spoon of sugar. It was wolfed down by all the family and will be made again.

  Fantastic, it tastes like tomato and mascapone soup but with some very ordinary ingredients. I double the amount of tomato and some times add some veg or bacon/chorizo at the beginning. A total winner in our house.

  After reading some of the comments I was a little worried about adding milk so I left out the milk d the baking soda. I too doubled up the tomatoes. It tasted lovely and was so easy to make!
