Lastly,

It is recommended to use a Vegetable stock to enhance the taste and the nutrients of Tomato soup. To make vegetable stock all you have to do is roughly chop up some vegetables like onion, carrot, cabbage, and celery, grab some herbs like cloves, and simmer them in water under low heat for 2 to 3 hours. After you do this, filter out the vegetables.

Now this stock can be used for any other dishes that require water to enhance their flavor. Along with this, you also have to know that the average shelf life of a tomato soup inside the refrigerator is 3 to 4 days so be sure to make only as much as you need.
