    Five full stars for this soup
    I added a little more stock, chicken, potatos and some water. Took out the thickening and it was a hit.
    Great Post

    I thank you all for the kind review of this soup. I do love soup even though mushroom is not one of my faves. This is mostly a cooking ingredient for me although Ed eats it as a "bowl of soup". Thanks!
