Tomato soup is a cold-weather staple in our house, and we have several favorite ways to prepare it. This Polish tomato soup is a bit more labor intensive than some versions, but it’s rich, creamy texture and intense flavor make it well worth the effort. We use fresh tomatoes to get the best possible flavor. Then we serve the soup over scratch-made Polish noodles, just like the ones our Grandma used to make.

Rich tomato flavor and creamy noodles are a delicious blend of taste and substance. This is a soup that we crave all winter long! When we’re short on time but really want that homemade flavor, we whip up a batch of noodles and serve them with our favorite canned tomato soup. Alternatively, we make the soup and use a package of store-bought egg noodles. A bowl of tomato soup with fresh noodles is the perfect way to end a busy day.
