My husband has warm memories of tomato soup from his childhood. I've never made it for him in all the 32 years I've been with him!!… *slapping my hand…"Bad Wife!* So….maybe now is the time!

wow this really looks good and I love the idea of roasting the toms first to get extra flavour! I'm a big soup maker but never tomato although this one does look exceptional I may just have to give it a try x
