    My late grandmother used to make Cheese Soup. The recipe was misplaced after her passing and we've been trying to replicate it ever since. We've gotten very close but this gets me just that much closer. This is VERY close to what her's tasted like. I don't think she used any Marsala wine or hot sauce in hers, and she probably used a cheaper cheese (partly cheddar, but otherwise this is very close to it. I think the Worcestershire was what we were missing. Thank you!

    I have a recipe that I normally use...vegtable cheese chowder, its made with a combination of sharp cheddar and velveta. I like mine a lot...but am always trying new things, found this one thought i would give it a whirl (love Alton Its different that mine, but very good, I will continue to use both recipes. The only thing I did differently in this one was use the sharp cheddar/velvetta combo. YUMMY

    Delicious soup, but I could probably have gone without the Marsala, Worcestershire and hot sauce. They give a nice flavor, but without them, it would have tasted more homey, natural. I'll try it without these ingredients next time and see how it turns out.

    I was going from memory, so forgot the flour. My wife was very skeptical...but fast converted! It was amazing! And so filling. We put some shaved gouda and fresh cooked bacon bits on top and had some sourdough grilled bacon n cheese sandwiches with it. Mmmmm...

    I love this recipe, I've used both fontina/swiss and sharp cheddar/wisconsin white cheddar. Each one is delicious and easy!

    My entire family loved this recipe. The soup was easy to make and made a full meal with a salad and some garlic toast. Even our oldest son, who is a fussy eater, ate this soup with relish. It worked equally well with cheddar cheese.

    I am not a big soup fan but this was really good soup. Three of us polished it off in one sitting. I suspect it is really high calorie though!

    Made it exactly as the recipe states, using Danish Fontina. Everyone loved this recipe. I added some cooked elbow noodles to make a Mac and Cheese soup. Might try adding some cooked broccoli next time as well.

    Thanks Alton for another great recipe!
