Refeience may be made to US patent No US3676154, wherein a process for shelf stable tomato soup concentrate is described The piocess is for preparation of a soup concenttate, which can be diluted to required consistency by adding hot or cold water Reference may also be made to the commercial soup concentrates available in the market by different companies like M/s MTR, India
Reference may be made to a patent PL325703, wherein a process for deep frozen tomato soup and a method for making the same are described The process is for the preparation of frozen soup, which can be prepared to required consistency by adding hot water Reference may be made to a freeze dried soup product along with vegetable chunks, available in the international market prepared by M/s Healthy Choice (http://www.Healthychoice.com) The pioduct can be prepared to required consistency by adding hot The diawbacks of the above piocesses are the prepaiation lequired at the customer end, as it is not ready-to-serve A lot of energy is spent in making the liquid soup into powder foim and a lot of energy is spent in freezing the liquid soup Additionally, additives like milk powder and stabilizers like starch aie added It does not contain vegetable chunks as compared to the present invention, which enhances the organoleptic property and nutritional content of the product. Also, the prior art product requires freezing conditions to store the product, which adds to the cost.
The Applicants would like to mention here that the term "Fo value" being used in the specification represents the value of energy accumulated by a food product during the whole cycle of sterilization. Fo value in short represents the number of minutes the food is actually exposed at the reference sterilization temperature of 121.11°C. It is commonly known that 1 Fo is the equivalent of energy accumulated in the food product if the same is exposed to a cycle of 1 minute at 121.1 1°C with saturated steam. Therefore, 20 Fo is the equivalent of energy accumulated in the food product if the same is exposed to a cycle of 20 minutes at 121.11°C with saturated steam. OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION

The product was analyzed for microbial and sensory analysis following standard protocols. The results are indicated herebelow. Example 3
Microbial analysis
Nature of Samples: Convenience products (pH>4.6), thermally processed in hermetically sealed rigid aluminum containers. Classification: Low acidified foods. Procedure:
1. Incubation Test (for determination of Commercial Sterility.) : Samples incubated for a period of 3 days at 25°C
2. Sub-culture: Incubated samples were examined for the presence of thermophilic spore forms (both aerobic and anaerobic) Mesophilic aerobes, coliforms and for yeasts and molds on Potato Dextrose Agar.
For more details on the procedure, please refer "Compendium of methods for the microbiological examination of foods: American Public Health Association. (1992) Carl Vanderzant and Don F. Splittstoesser Eds. Washington D.C.p. 1037-1049" and Standard prescribed from NCA, USA (cfu/mL)

Table 1 : Illustrates the amount of different bacteria present in the soup which are processed under different conditions and after different time period of storage
Figure imgf000008_0002
Sensory analysis
Sensory evaluation of canned soup was carried out by trained panel using Quantitative Descriptive Analysis technique. The canned soup was compared to fresh soup (unprocessed) to which fresh vegetables (cauliflower, carrot and potato) diced and blanched, were added prior to sensory evaluation. The results of sensory analysis indicated that the canned soup was more brownish in colour and had more of cooked tomato aroma notes as compared to unprocessed soup, which had more desirable fresh tomato aroma notes. Doneness of vegetables was more in the canned soup. Sourness and spicy aroma notes were perceived to be higher in the canned soup than in the unprocessed soup. Although overall quality of canned soup was rated 7.7, it was slightly less than that of the unprocessed soup (8.7). The profilogram is indicated in figure 2. Storage studies
Microbiological studies indicated that the products were safe after a storage period of 180 days (6 months). The sensory analysis data is indicated below in the form of table 3 in comparison with unprocessed, canned and stored products
Table 3: Mean scores of major sensory attributes
Figure imgf000009_0001
The results of sensory analysis indicated that the sensory quality of freshly canned sample and that of stored sample did not differ significantly (p < 0.05). It was observed that although there was a marginal increase in the metallic after taste, they were well below the threshold values. No other pff- flavour or defective notes were detected in the stored samples. The overall quality remained close to that of the freshly canned sample. Therefore, canned samples stored for 6 months had acceptable sensory quality without showing any significant increase in undesirable quality attributes.
