Yummy! This is absolutely delicious. My hubby tells me it's fine dining quality! I substitute 2 cups of milk for 2 of the cups of chicken broth. And I use one Asian pear instead of 2 North American pears because I'm living in Korea. I also double the garlic! And use a sweet potato instead of the russet potato.
