This is delicious soup. I'll admit to not doing the puree step as I didn't realize that it was meant to be a smooth soup until I reached that point in the directions. My favorite soups are broth and "chunks" and I knew that I wouldn't like it nearly as much if I put it in the blender. I had this for tonights dinner with some small crackers and really loved every spoonful. -
Followed the recipe right on down, more than anything to get a feel for what this soup should be like & we were very satisfied with the flavor! I'd have liked a bit of chunky potato in it, but then it probably wouldn't have been authentic, but I can't fault it for that, though! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
