Best mushroom soup I've ever made. Mine came out a little darker than the photo of this soup, probably because I used half portabellas. I did cook my mushrooms slightly longer, but followed everything else the same. A very filling soup, and much healhier than most cream soup recipes. I think next time I make it, I will add some garlic and see what that does for it (we are huge garlic fans in this house). Oh, and next time, I'm doubling the recipe!!

Well verilucky, I believe that your Husband is the lucky one. When I first test a recipe I make it as written. These folks that change sometimes better than half the original ingredients before trying it (other than someone with a dietary problem) Bug the you know what out of me. This deserves a 10. Ingredients, flavor, simplicity, etc. FANTASTIC. As some of the folks say, This IS a keeper. Thank you. Cap'n Jack

I also add one small carrot, minced, to the sautéing onions to give it a little sweetness. This is a very hearty soup with extremely well-balanced flavors. I serve it with rustic bread.

We LOVED this soup. Our local gourmet market sells one for $5. a pint!!I found this recipe, and we like it even better than the markets. I agree that the dill is a must. I think that what put this over the top was the lemon juice. It added such a bright flavor. I thank you, my husband thanks you, and my wallet thanks you!!

This is a great soup recipe! I did add a bit of garlic but other than that I followed the recipe to the letter. A keeper in my book!
