Norwegian Tomato Soup
I got this recipe from my mom, but have ended up replacing the 4 whole cloves with blue cheese after putting in too many cloves the first time I made it.
- 6 quarts of cut up tomatoes
- 4 onions, chopped
- 1 bunch celery
- 1/4 pound mild creamy blue cheese
- 1/8 cup salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 pound butter
- 6 tablespoons flour
- 1 green pepper
- Chop celery, onions, and green pepper. Combine and start simmering until celery is not crunchy.
- Meanwhile, blanch and chop tomatoes. Add them to the mix as you go.
- Add 3/4 cup sugar.
- In a separate pot, melt 1/2 pound butter and add 6 tablespoons flour. Mix and let boil. Add the mixture to the soup and bring to a boil.
- Put in jars and seal.
