This is an excellent soup. The instructions aren't all that great, but it seems to be one of those simple soups that you just throw together. I added some chopped celery because I like it. I scaled this back to 2 gallons and have 1 gallon in the freezer for later. I let it simmer for a long time on the stove, which filled the house with a nice aroma. Made and Reviewed for Spring PAC 2009. Thanks! :)

This is a lovely soup and one which I would happily make again; however, the directions are lacking. This needs to be simmered for a while to soften the onions and get a good blend on the flavors. Made for PAC 2008.
