Mixed up at the store, bought tomato soup instead of paste, made cancer. Texture would be described as "malevolent". Smell is enticing, presumably to lure me in so I can be killed for my sins against gluten. I would refer to the crumb as "dense and underbaked" if I was feeling gentle, "like an old mushroom had a baby with a brick" if honesty was required. Genuinely curious how, assuming I want to risk summoning Cthulhu's hemorrhoids again, I would go about substituting 1 cup tomato soup for 1 cup tomato paste? I still have both soup and hubris left.

    Why would tomato paste be involved? Is this coming from a specific recipe?

    I was gonna ask what the hell is this, but Cthulhu’s hemorrhoids is probably right, lmao.

    If the flavor is good don’t waste it, use for breadcrumbs and make salmon/tuna croquettes or something fried.

    Is this a soda bread or is it leavened with yeast?

    The original recipe’s 1 cup tomato paste is absurd, probably was a typo or translation error to begin with, and by adding tomato soup you added more moisture but there is still far, far too little moisture.

    My advice? Find a different recipie.

  5. You can’t feasibly get 1 cup of tomato paste from 1 cup of tomato soup. You would need to cook the soup down to evaporate most of the water out. By the time you get to the consistency of paste, I’d imagine you are down to a few tbsp. Easier to just go buy paste.

    Put it out of it’s misery, it’s suffering

    I assume the recipe calls for other sources of hydration besides the Tomato Substance?

    I almost hesitate to ask, but a crumb shot could help diagnose. On the surface it looks like far too little moisture – what was the hydration level? Did it rise well?

    amazing post, 10/10 😂 could you maybe reduce the soup in the stove until it‘s a paste?

    Tomato soup may have had too much sodium and killed the yeast.

    Is that a Meteorite? You need to find another line of work…

    what exactly is this abomination supposed to be? 😀 😀

    Tomato paste + water + salt = tomato soup. 

    Hope this helps!

    It looks like the final iteration of Elisabeth Sparkle in The Substance.
