Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 6 ounces Tomato paste
- 1 cup Vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Dried basil
- 2 tablespoons Water (optional, for adjusting consistency)
Directions
Step 1
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the butter is melted, whisk in the all-purpose flour to form a smooth roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture smells slightly nutty but does not brown.
Step 3
Add the tomato paste to the roux and whisk until well combined and smooth.
Step 4
Slowly pour in the vegetable broth while whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Step 5
Stir in the granulated sugar, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried basil. Mix well to combine.
Step 6
Simmer the mixture for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened and concentrated.
Step 7
If the soup is too thick, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of water to achieve the desired consistency.
Step 8
Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature before using in recipes or storing.
Step 9
Store the condensed tomato soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
