    Ingredients came to together in perfect harmony to produce a silky, smooth creation with a flavor that makes you just say, "mmmmm". Add in that yummy snap when you bite into a piece of shrimp and you're talking awesome. Followed instructions exactly and have finally found the perfect Shrimp Bisque. Thanks for sharing, Tyler.

    Sorry- I followed this recipe exactly- except for using Sherry instead of Brandy.
    I had to doctor the heck out of it (spice wise.
    I added Louisiana Hot Sauce, lots of white pepper, and Old Bay Seasoning just to get some flavor.
    It was not an "Ultimate" in my opinion.
    Anyone know of a good Shrimp Bisque recipe? I'm still looking :-

    This is the classiest and yummiest soup! Made a batch as a trial run for a Christmas soup. My boyfriend said this was the BEST soup he has ever had! I used Sherry which is all I had in the ol' liquor cabinet and it turned out awesome. Marinate the shrimp in some Old Bay seasoning to give a little kick. Thanks Ty!

    This was a really impressive dish but it was so easy to make. I also added crab and it really gave it some heartyness. I also added 1 tsp of fresh ground nutmeg, and some lemon juice to bring out more of the citrus. Perfect meal for a cold day.

    This bisque was delicious. I had a few problems though. I added too much water. I guess I went over the "covering the vegetalbles" limit. I was thinking that I would just get more soup (I was having a crowd but instead it didn't thicken enough and diluted it to the point where the taste was compromised. I added more tomato paste and some salt and it was fine. But I'm sure it would have been amazing if I hadn't made that one mistake. I will definitely make this again! The crowd I had seemed to like it.........

    Living on the gulf coast, I am so lucky to have fresh seafood to use. I made the stock with shrimp and crab shells. I also added crab meat, black mussels, some sour cream and parmesan cheese.

    My friends raved about this stuff, they want it every time we eat.

    The orange zest brings a whole new dimension to classic bisque. I am from New Orleans originally and was brought up with shrimp bisque made in various ways. This is my new found favorite! It was so easy to make and although I added sherry (plus the brandy and a clove of garlic, I worked with your recipe. I think this would be a great course for a holiday meal.
    Butter and cream are integral parts to a bisque and I did not find this greasy at all. I am sure the French don't either.
    Thanks for another great recipe.

    Well first off, I'm from Vancouver, BC (Canada and we have had a really hot/dry summer until this past weekend. So I decided it would be nice to switch up dinner, and have soup and salad...I read all of the reviews, and opted to follow the below: with the exception I switched up the Brandy with Sherry. I deglazed the pan with 3/4 c of sherry, and then added the last 1/4 c of sherry when the vege's etc were strained, and the soup was re-heating prior to adding the shrimp.. A good 10 mins prior..Absolutely delicious! The family absolutely raved at how well the soup turned out, and this was the first time I have ever tried making a bisque! Thank you for all of your submissions, including the 3 c of water, and working the vege's and shrimp skins against the strainer, The soup was awesome and to Tyler - thank you !! Your French Onion soup also is just as good (that from the this past winter!!!

    I made this using 2 cups heavy cream and 2 cups fat-free half and half. I increased the flour to 4 Tblsps. and also added an extra Tblsp. of tomato paste for extra color and depth. One full cup of brandy works best. And 3/4 lb. of shrimp is plenty. This has to be one of Tyler's very best. I'm going to try this with lobster...
