I made my beef barley/vegetable soup today which I've made many, many times before BUT today it doesn't taste too good. It has that strong "acidy" taste. I used tomatoes that I had frozen from last years garden but I've done that before. Is there something I can add to get rid of that taste. I made a HUGE batch and don't want to throw it out!! HELP!!!

How about adding some spices and do you have any onion soup mix. That will often do the trick.

HTH

Ah, onion soup mix!! Great idea!! Thanks CJ, I just popped back in here to see if there was a suggestion!! Guess what we are having for supper if this turns out!! :hugz:

I always heard a pinch of sugar will cut the acid taste Good luck

So how'd it turn out? Were you able to disguise the taste? Inquiring minds want to know. LOL!!

Ok, thank you SO much ladies!! What I did was put in a pkg. onion soup mix AND some sugar!!! The boys gobbled it up!!! Nothing like making them my gineau pigs......if they ate it it had to be OK No really, it turned out fine. I am so thankful I could save it because what a waste that would have been!! I still have a huge pot left over!! Yeah!!
