I love clear soups, and this one was no exception. Very simple, but very yummy. My batch had a bit of heat to it, so the previous reviewer might have used more mild poblanos. I'm sure I'll be making this one again as the weather gets colder. Thanks for posting! Made for PAC Fall 09

This was a good, clean soup. There was no heat to it, even with the poblano peppers and chili oil.
