How to Add Cream to Tomato Soup

When making tomato soup, many people try to add the cream the wrong way, resulting in curdling or other unpleasant texture effects. Besides adding the cream the right way and at the right time, it is also important that you use a heavy bottomed pot to avoid uneven heat conditions. While many people like to use cream, you can also use milk with this technique, as you are thickening it further by using flour and butter anyway.
