I'm surprised that so many people have had a hard time preparing this soup. It's really a very basic soup recipe. This recipe is a great simple soup that is delicious and yet elegant enough to serve for dinner parties. Serve as written for a soup course but for a family supper I recommend adding a cup of shredded chicken and about three cups vegetables (I loved it when I added a bag of California blend (broccoli cauliflower and carrots)). Thanks for the recipe!
My boyfriend called this 'melted cheese mess'. It was terrible and oily and we ended up throwing out the entire pot in the end. Don't think I will be making this again.
Great soup! The only change was I used dried minced onion about 2 tablespoons worth. My soup wasn't as creamy as I would like so next time I would probably use 1.5 cups of milk instead of 2 cups. This soup is perfect on a cold windy Chicago day. Thanks Austin!
I loved this recipe. I didn't have chicken broth so I used water and chicken flavor packet from Ramen. I added a 3 cups of milk instead of two and added the cheese while the heat was still on low. I also used Primo Taglio jack cheese slices cut up. It was great no goopy mess just creamy soup. My boyfriend loved it as well and I will definitely make it again.
For those out there who had a weird texture or a cheesy mess-this is a basic white sauce technique learning to do it properly will make this taste smooth creamy and delicious.
it was good mine turned out with a weird texture
I wanted to like this soup but didn't. I didn't like the flavor it was too thick and the texture was grainy. For anyone else making it heat the milk and broth before adding to the flour mixture. Then add it slowly and stir constantly. This should help the consistency. Just be careful not to boil the milk. I won't make this soup again.
This was okay. It had sort of a flour chesse mess but was---like I said just okay @ suprised "so many people had a problem" only 9 review. waht is "so many"?
of course I modified soup like others have by adding leftover cooked vegies: potatoes carrots broccoli and added a fresh jalapeño instead of the hot pepper sauce. The chunkier soup was more satisfying!
