2 medium to large yellow onions (, chopped)
2 cloves garlic (, minced)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon quality smoked Hungarian paprika (preferably Kalosca or Szeged) ((mild, not hot))

1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds (, lightly crushed)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon sugar ((optional))
4 cups quality chicken broth (we recommend Aneto 100% All-Natural Chicken Broth)
