In reply to Carroll. So glad you enjoyed it, Carroll, and thanks for passing the recipe on as well. I'm intrigued by your addition, is it sherry vinegar or sherry wine?

I used to make a soup similar and used a dollop of sour cream and sherry poured over the cream. Wonderful!! I never stirred the cream in a spoonful of soup with a touch of cream and sherry is soooo good. I sent this to my son to try.

In reply to Alex. Much appreciated, Alex! So glad you enjoyed this wonderfully, warming and filling soup. It really is one of those soups that eats like a meal. I also love the idea of using diced ham for lardons, that was a perfect substitution you made. I actually think I might try that the next time I make this!

Just made this today and, like all of your recipes, it’s absolutely exceptional! I didn’t have lardons so I used diced ham and it came out absolutely beautifully! I love your recipes because they’re so easy to follow, your images and descriptions are so helpful, and you use straightforward ingredients. It’s so true that less is more – while still being SO flavorful! I used dried thyme because my store was out of fresh and it’s winter here so my garden is dead (lol) but it’s exquisite. Thank you for your wonderful recipes!
