1 cup (medium) of Tomato Soup (240 g) has 77 calories. That works out to 32 calories per 100 g. It contains 14.9 g of carbs, 2.9 g of protein, 0.7 g of fat and 2.9 g of fiber. Its 31.2 mg of Vitamin C covers 35% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 38 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Tomato Soup is a smooth soup made by cooking ripe tomatoes with water or stock and blending them until velvety. In Turkish home cooking, recipes may use a little flour and fat for body, and sometimes milk for a gentler finish; the exact version varies from kitchen to kitchen.
In Turkey it is commonly served hot as a first course, especially on cooler days, often with grated kaşar or crisp pieces of bread. It tastes tangy and mildly sweet, with a thick, silky texture. Mostly tomato and relatively low in calories, it offers some fibre but is not especially filling on its own. Pair it with a cheese toastie or a bean salad for a more substantial lunch.

An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Cook chopped or grated fresh tomatoes with onion and a little oil until soft, then add stock or water and simmer. Blend until smooth, and season to taste; a little cream is optional.
Yes, canned tomatoes work well in tomato soup and are convenient when fresh tomatoes are out of season. Use whole, crushed, or diced tomatoes, then blend the soup for a smooth finish.
A small amount of sugar can soften the sharp, acidic taste of some tomatoes, but it is not essential. Simmering the soup longer or adding a little cream can also make its flavor taste less tart.
Milk can curdle in tomato soup because the tomatoes are acidic and the soup is very hot. Lower the heat, warm the milk gradually with a little soup, then stir it in without bringing the pot to a boil.
Blend part or all of the tomato soup to give it a thicker, smoother texture without cream. You can also simmer it uncovered to reduce excess liquid or blend in cooked vegetables such as carrots.
Roasting tomatoes is optional, but it gives tomato soup a deeper, sweeter flavor. Roast them until soft and lightly browned, then blend them into the soup with stock, herbs, and any other ingredients.
Grilled cheese is a classic pairing with tomato soup because the crisp bread and melted cheese contrast with the smooth soup. Toast, a green salad, or a simple sandwich also makes a good side.
Yes, homemade tomato soup freezes well, especially before adding milk or cream. Cool it first, store it in a freezer-safe container with room for expansion, and stir well after reheating.
Homemade tomato soup usually keeps for 3–4 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it promptly after it cools, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat.
Tomato soup can be a nutritious choice, particularly when made mainly with tomatoes and modest amounts of added salt, oil, or cream. Its nutritional value changes with the recipe and what you serve alongside it.
