How Do You Make Tomato Soup From Tomato Paste?
To make tomato soup from tomato paste, you will need to dilute the paste by mixing it with water or broth to achieve the desired consistency. Start by sautéing onions and garlic in butter or olive oil until they turn translucent. Mix in the tomato paste and dilute it with water or low-sodium chicken broth. Add herbs such as thyme, basil or oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Let the soup simmer for 15-20 minutes until the flavors have melded together. The soup can also be further thickened with cream or milk for a richer taste.
