Different and.....interesting. I forgot to take out the chunks of ginger before I blended which left the woody strings of ginger in the soup which wasn't fun and next time I would not put in the grated lime (or lemon) peel. Both mistakes spoiled what should have been a creamy soup. I will try this recipe again with these changes.
