I added it to the pot of soup, along with another tablespoon of sugar from a suggestion below, and man... it tastes the best I've EVER had!!! Better than any can of soup, better than any I'd tried to make prior to this. I also grabbed some fresh living basil today and added a chiffonade of it (I love cooking with fresh herbs where possible). I don't know if any one addition would have done the trick, but the three additions together made this a soup to freeze and have on hand when I go into a fibro or lupus flare and can't eat solid food.

Thank you guys for the suggestions!!! I knew you'd suss out my problem! Love you much!
