    my hubby and i both had seconds of this soup! such simple ingredients, yet there you get so much flavor from the pistou. I absolutely loved the pistou! i'm wondering if i could use cooked garlic in it and make it a spread...it was so yummy!

    This soup is incredibly tasty and hearty!
    I added an additional tiny bit of the pistou to the bottom of each bowl before serving and roasted leftover parts of the leeks with olive oil & salt/pepper for garnish on top. Very easy and an absolute crowd pleaser!

    This soup is now tied for first place with my family traditional
    Wedding Soup !!! And absolutely it is well worth the saffron purchase...
    but is also excellent without it...I use an organic tomato paste from
    Fresh Market in the pistou...Thanks Ina.

    OK, so the holidays are winding down and I was looking for a healthy soup. The ratings for this one intrigued me so I decided to give it a shot, including paying the $15 for saffron. WOW! There are so many levels of flavor in this soup that you'll forget it's only veggies! I made this exactly as written and would definitely make it again. I added additional pistou in each bowl, but decided the additional parmesan wasn't really necessary. I served this with warmed ciabatta and look forward to leftovers (of which there are plenty!.

    This soup is so rich, flavorful and hearty. I've made it many times and have had rave reviews. I've also shared this recipe with friends. It is truly a classic. My family loves the pistou so much that I make extra and we spread it on bread. Ina, on this one, you've out done yourself.

    Stick to the recipe word for word and you will have an amazingly fresh soup with unbelievable layers of flavors. I find it rare to be able to make a soup in this relatively short amount of time and it have taste so delicious! Served with a little crusty bread. Thanks AGAIN Ina!

    We seved this soup with a French themed party. It was by far the favorite of most people there. Most had at least 2 bowls, some three!

    Don't change a thing about it. I know saffron is expensive but it is what gives this dish the depth of flavor that is fabulous. It's been moved to the top of my list as one of my favorite Ina recipe.

    So I made the Pistou in a food processor and totally forgot to add it to the soup. I'm sure it does something marvelous to it, but for all you lazy people out there, you could totally skip it and it's still insanely good!

    This soup is amazing. The pasta makes it super hearty and the saffron adds a lovely, subtle flavor to the broth. I used veggie broth, but I'm sure chicken works too! The recipie makes a HUGE amount but you don't mind eating on it all week!
