very good, I used homemade chicken broth in place of the water, and I used 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar which really kicked this soup up a notch, also added in 2 teaspoons crushed red chili flakes, I have never added in dry mustard powder to soup, but it worked very well, thanks for sharing dreamer, this is a great soup!

This recipe is ok. i felt that it was lacking depth. I didn't have any balsamic vinegar so i added lemon juice. Next time i think that i will add some liquid smoke and maybe some mushroom powder to give it more flavor.

We liked this, but the balsamic vinegar was way too strong and overpowered the other flavors. I added additional stock to try and tone it down some which helped. I made this exactly as written and it will make for some good lunches next week. Thanks
