I've been making this soup for years and it's so simple but tastes wonderfully complex; guests will think you spent hours in the kitchen making it. Campbell's has discontinued the condensed pea soup, so I substituted cream of celery and it worked out perfectly -- I just had to add salt and pepper. I highly recommend splurging on lump crab meat, add an extra teaspoon of curry powder to make up for the blandness of the celery soup, and don't leave out the sherry. It helps round out the richness of the bisque.
