Adam and Joanne’s Suggestions
- Milk as a Substitute: Whereas you should use milk as an alternative of cream, remember that tomato soup may be acidic and may trigger curdling. To forestall this, stir in 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to neutralize the acidity earlier than including the milk.
- My soup is simply too acidic: In case your soup is simply too tart, strive including 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to stability the flavors. Cream additionally helps with this.
- Vegan Tomato Soup: Our recipe is well adaptable! Substitute vegan butter for normal butter and use cashew cream (here’s our recipe) or full-fat coconut milk as an alternative of cream. Coconut milk provides a barely nutty taste however works nicely.
- Roasting Pan Tip: Tomatoes are acidic, so keep away from aluminum pans. For finest outcomes, go for anodized aluminum, ceramic-coated, or glass baking dishes.
