I'm not sure about the combination of capers and tomatoes, but I'm willing to give it a try.

I'm curious to try this recipe with different types of tomatoes. I think it would be interesting to use heirloom tomatoes or cherry tomatoes.

I'm not a huge fan of capers, so I omitted them from the recipe. The soup was still delicious, but I think it would have been even better with the capers.

This soup was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a particularly tart variety of tomatoes. Next time, I'll try using a sweeter variety.
