By wtaylor

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup butter
• 1/4 cup flour
• 3 cups tomato juice or V-8
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 2-3 cups milk
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

In a large sauce pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Then whisk in the flour until smooth.
Add the tomato juice or V-8 and stir until it thickens.
Next whisk in the soda followed by 2 cups of milk, sugar and salt. Cook until heated though. Taste the soup at this point and if you like it creamier, add the additional cup of milk.
