Tomato Soup in a Test Environment

I have awesome work friends. They graciously volunteered to test my tomato soup recipe and give me some good, honest feedback. The people I work with are good to each other like that. One of my co-workers routinely brings in some pretty amazing baked goods for us to try. I guess the reality of the situation is that we're an office full of guinea pigs who are willing to put our tastebuds on the line to help each other succeed.

Hungry....hungry guinea pigs...who REALLY just...love success...so much.  Mmmm.....

But I digress.

Three of my friends tried my tomato soup and gave me some pretty good feedback.

First review - Said it was really good. It was so good, in fact that her fiancée ate half of the sample I provided to her. And HE liked it too!

Second review - Said it was good, a little thin in consistency and needed more pepper and basil.

Third review - Again, said it was good. Consistency was fine, but needed more garlic. We played around with adding some garlic powder and pepper to it and the added garlic helped to bring out the basil more.

My friends are nothing if not honest. So now I have some ideas for how to tweak the recipe. Time to take that information back to the kitchen and work on Tomato Soup V2.
