Very good recipe, instead of veal I used turkey and it was just as good. I will definitely do this one again.

Like many others, I watched the show and immediatly wanted to make this soup. I followed it exactly with only the following changes: groud beef instead of veal, garlic added to the other vegetables, and the stock was too bland so I had to add a few chicken boulion cubes.
My whole family loved this soup and I was pretty pleased that I used/had bone marrow for the first time. I will make this again.

This recipe was the best , You can bet I will be making it a again. The Beef Bone Marrow was the best part, and the little Veal Meatball were so good.

I LOVE this show. I think Alex is smart and has a good palate. This combo of beef and chicken was surprisingly good. I never would have thought this was good, particularly after reading the comments. I used your comments and tweaked the recipe. I put the water just enough to cover the chicken. I don't like the thought of marrow so I used 4 beef bullion cubes. I used dry bay leaves (3 and a teaspoon of dry Thyme. I also used "better than bouillon" chicken (1T. I used a LOT more garlic. Also, I used a parmesan rind (a trick I learned from Giada at the end of the cooking. The soup came out flavorful and just fantastic!

I am feeling very under the weather (flu ??? in August I had to make some of this soup.

I used flavorful Pollo Buono chicken.
Instead of eggs I used: Mrs. Millers Large Pot Pie Squares.

Given other's comments, I'm scared to try this, but the meatballs and concept sound so good. I'm going to try this using a superior brand of stock that I buy, to see if this solves the bland flavor others report. Frankly, i'm surprised some say this is easy to make. It sounds labor-intensive, so I'll report back to see if this works.

I expected more from Alex. After hearing her critique chef's dishes I assumed she would have it figured out. Not this broth. Liked the combination of ingredients though. The "flavor" is from the toasted bread w/ goat cheese she recommends as a side.

I followed the recipe exactly - the only thing I didn't do was add the marrow to the broth. I found this sound pretty bland. I needed to added a good bit of salt and pepper at the end to boost the flavor. I am pretty disappointed since it took some time to make and I was really looking forward to it after watching the show. Maybe the toast with the goat cheese for dipping is the key.

I love Alex's show and the way she describes the food. It makes you want to try her recipe, which is exactly what I did with this soup. This will now be my "specialty chicken soup". I believe the secret ingredient she gave us, the beef marrow bones, is what made it so delicious. I gave some to a friend who also said it was a keeper. (For the meatballs I used a meatloaf mixture that I got from the grocery store (beef, veal & pork as I'm not crazy about veal. Everything else I did exactly as prescribed. My verdict is 5 stars!!
(Next I want to try her brisket recipe and the olive oil cake.
