    I found this soup to be just above average... I added a bit of honey and a dash of cayenne to round out the flavors... but it was still 3 stars at best.

    I used vegetable stock, omitted the yam (to make it fewer 'points' on Weight Watchers, bought the cream but we didn't use it. To simplify things, I didn't cut up the veggies so small and simply cooked them longer than 30 minutes. Soup was thick, had a wonderful ginger/carrot flavor. Will make this over and over again!

    My husband and I loved this soup. Not as quick to prepare since there is so much peeling of vegetables, but worth the time.

    I tried another carrot soup from this site "Carrot Soup" and thought it was pretty good until I tried this recipe and found it to be superior to the other recipe. The fresh ginger really makes a diference and supports what many Food Network Chef's say about using fresh herbs and spices over dried. Instead of using heavy cream I used a dollop of sour cream with the finished soup. I additionally made some fresh cornbreasd to go with this soup. The flavor even improves the next day if you have any leftovers...! A repeat.

    Ok carrot soup sounds kinda blah. When I told my husband I was making it he was very... well lets say limited in his excitement. But when I served it to him he loved it my whole family loved it, And I am going to serve it to our extended family with Christmas dinner, Yes it's that good. Give it a try, you will be suprised.

    This soup is so easy to make and the taste is AWESOME!!! My mother in law made it and we each ate 3 bowls. We gave 2 bowls to the neighbors and they raved about it as well. We can't wait to make it again! Try this...you won't be sorry!

    Easy recipe with absolutely excellent results. I did not pureee to a velvet texture but left it just slightly semi puree with very small pieces of carrot for a hint of texture. I placed the heavy cream in the bottom of the bowl and added soup and swirled. Attractive results ! My family and husband loved it. Also had leftovers (that were not left over for long

    This was very easy to make. The ginger really added a fantastic flavor to the soup. My husband and I loved it. My three children ate the bread. I will definitely make it again (for adults! I added a small spoonful of sour cream and a sprig of basil to the soup and it really made it an elegant dish.
