This was amazing with the following edits:

1/4 of a large vidalia onion (as other folks noted, the whole onion is too much
1 T of high quality balsamic vinegar and 1 T of white wine vinegar: balsamic for sweetness, white for punch.
1 teaspoon of kosher salt
1/2 cup of chopped cilantro at the end

GREAT recipe. I ate about half of it before it even went in the fridge. I'm about to go guiltily sample some more after I post this!

I followed the recipe exactly and then I added boiled shrimp and lump blue crab meat. Delicious! I served it to several guests and they each asked for the recipe. BIG hit!

I definitely wouldn't use the whole onion! Just 1/4 was pretty pronounced. I also added some smoked paprika and it give a nice depth. Gorgeous recipe!

Nice recipe as a launch point.
We use all organic ingredients which really makes the flavors pop.
1 teaspoon of organic demerara sugar takes away a little acidity, and we use regular organic cukes instead of hot house (english cukes for the earthier flavor.
We swap out the red onion for 1/8 cup of a small vidalia, and drop the garlic altogether.
If the organic tomatoes arent ultra fresh and ripe we use san marzano canned plum tomatoes.
Also, just to make it prettier, we use yellow and orange bell peppers.

Like I said, great launching point.
And it is freaking yummy!

This is easy and it turns out delicious. There's no kosher anything available here, and Mediterranean Sea Salt from Italy proved to be just what the doctor ordered.

Made it for a brunch for 24 and it rocked the house. Modified it as follows:

I used whole D.O.P. San Marzano tomatoes in place of the tomato juice - this made it much heartier. I added orange and yellow bell peppers. We made large croutons with lemon-thyme infused olive oil and garnished each cup with a crouton and fresh chives and finely diced hungarian hot peppers for those that wanted a good kick.

This is a good (not great recipe. It needs some editing:
1 DO NOT USE A WHOLE ONION! Start with half, you can always add more. I made this for a barbecue and they love it with only 1/2 of the onion
2 The white vinegar is a bit too much acid so we used balsamic and it was great.
3 Add a little lemon or lime zest, you get the sweatness without the acid
4 I added 1/2 tsp of celery salt and omitted the addition of Kosher salt.
It was amazing with these edits

I followed the recipe to the "T". Unfortunately the taste was really bitter. I would not recommend this recipe. If you use it start sparingly on the garlic and onion.

This is amazing!!! I mean, REALLY deliciuos! I had just made homemade pesto so I added 1/4 cup of it to the soup. I also used red wine vinegar. I add a dash of sriracha to each serving for a little kick. Perfect way to get your veggies!
