This soup sounds so awesome. I would love it, I know but my husband won't eat soup so I only make small, small sizes for myself. I love soup. And with the fireplace going....it is really yummy.

AL... would you like me to cut the recipe down for you, to.. say, a quart?
It's not hard...

OK... this might not be EXACT... but I've never seen a soup recipe that required that! (it's funny... one of my DIL's grew up not having a CLUE in the kitchen. She still hates baking... "it's too hard" (this is a person with a master's degree! Sheesh!), but she's a great cook. Apparently, it's the "exact measurements" thing that gets her in baking!)
Anyway...
Use 1 quart of tomato puree
1 medium onion
1/4 cup chopped sweet pepper (if you have dehydrated, just rehydrate a couple tablespoons of dried peppers and use them)
Add
3 tablespoons of sugar
2 1/4 Teaspoons of salt
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 1/4 Teaspoons vinegar
Follow the above directions, and enjoy!

Psalms 23:1,2 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
Sorry for a dumb question but is the 1 quart version for making 1 quart of soup, or is this what you get when you take 1 quart tomato puree (I am guessing that is home-made strained tomatoes?).
So to make additional quarts we just multiply (by 4's would be good because of the 1/4 bell pepper) to the size desired?
I am asking because since we didn't get a garden in this year (and they don't use gallons over here either) I'm going to have to buy a box or two of tomatoes at the farmers market (or when they go on discount) to make this and put it up and/or my Italian sauce etc.
I have quite a few quart canning jars so that's an easy measure for me.

I'm growing lots of purple basil in order to make the purple basil vinegar the ST recommends. It makes a huge difference.
