Fresh Tomato Soup

1. 1

   In a large pot, over medium heat, combine the tomatoes, onion, cloves and chicken broth.

2. 2

   Bring to a boil, and gently boil for about 20 minutes to blend all of the flavors.

3. 3

   Remove from heat and run the mixture through a food mill into a large bowl, or pan.

4. 4

   Discard any stuff left over in the food mill.

5. 5

   You can also strain this to remove the large pieces (I don't have a food mill.) In the now empty pot, melt the butter over medium heat.

6. 6

   Stir in the flour to make a roux, cooking until the roux is a medium brown.

7. 7

   Gradually whisk in a bit of the tomato mixture, so that no lumps form, then stir in the rest.

8. 8

   Season with sugar and salt, and adjust to taste.
