MOM'S CREAM OF TOMATO SOUP 
2 c. stewed tomatoes
2 tsp. sugar
2 whole cloves
1 tbsp. onion
1/2 tsp. salt, optional
1 tsp. baking soda
2 c. med. white sauce
1/2 c. water

Simmer tomatoes, sugar, cloves, salt, onion and 1/2 cup water for 20 minutes. Strain mixture. Add soda and pour slowly into hot white sauce. Mix well. Serves 4.

This was a special treat at our house during the Depression, when my mother used her home canned stewed tomatoes to make it.
