Whose soup is this?

Everyone’s recipe lists have recipes with names like Jane’s apple pie, aunt Betty’s rice etc.
So to celebrate the winter that has arrived, I decided to go back in time 20 years to Ronen’s tomato soup. it is the type of recipe that consists of many ingredients, but few quantities or any exact measurements – so please accept my apologies 🙂
