đŸœïž Ingredients

Ingredients for homemade tomato soup: tomato passata, alphabet pasta, celery stalks, onion, garlic cloves, flour, vegetable oil, salt, sugar, and spices arranged neatly on a countertop.

  • 900ml tomato passata (for a deep, rich tomato base)
  • 1 medium onion (kept whole, for extra flavor)
  • 2 celery stalks (adds depth)
  • 2 garlic cloves (because everything’s better with garlic!)
  • 4 tbsp oil (for the roux)
  • 2 tbsp flour (helps thicken the soup)
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 3 tbsp sugar (balances the acidity)
  • 100g alphabet pasta (because it’s fun!)
  • 1 liter water

đŸ”„ Step-by-Step Instructions

1ïžâƒŁ Make the Base (a.k.a. Flavor Magic)

  • Heat the oil in a pot over medium heat.
  • Stir in the flour and cook for a minute or two, until it turns a light golden color.
  • Don’t let it burn! Keep stirring so it stays smooth.

2ïžâƒŁ Add the Tomatoes & Build the Flavor

  • Slowly pour in the passata, stirring constantly so everything blends nicely.
  • Add a pinch of salt & pepper—you can adjust later, but this gives a good starting point.

3ïžâƒŁ Toss in the Veggies

  • Pour in the water, then add the whole onion, celery stalks, and garlic cloves.
  • Cover and let it simmer for 20 minutes—this step infuses the soup with so much depth!

4ïžâƒŁ Time to Strain

  • Once the veggies have done their job, remove them from the soup.
  • Now you’re left with a super smooth, flavorful base!

5ïžâƒŁ Sweeten & Add the Pasta

  • Stir in the sugar—this helps balance out the natural tanginess of the tomatoes.
  • Drop in the alphabet pasta, and let it cook for 7–10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

6ïžâƒŁ Taste & Adjust

  • Too tangy? A little more sugar will fix that!
  • Not salty enough? A pinch of salt should do the trick.
  • Want it richer? A swirl of cream at the end adds an extra layer of comfort.

7ïžâƒŁ Serve & Enjoy!

  • Ladle it into bowls, grab a spoon, and enjoy that warm, comforting goodness.
  • Bonus points if you serve it with a grilled cheese sandwich or some buttery garlic bread!
