This has become a regular dish in my home. My husband does not get tired of eating it and really enjoys the left over soup. I modify it by adding a little more wine and using double chicken stock (since thats always what I have on handand add no salt. I also started to make it leaner by using half the butter and 1/2 to 1 slice of bacon. I prefer the pureed over the chuncky style.

For some reason, this was not the consistency I expected and it was a little thin. However, the flavor was remarkable. Next time, I would skip the fresh parsley part of the garnish. I thought it overpowered the flavor of the soup. The croutons were out of this world!! I would make them for other recipes and salads. Yum!

Delicious!!!! I took a little portion out for myself before I added the dairy, and It was wonderful! Of course I added the dairy for my family, they loved it. I will make this one again!

Absolutely delicious! My in-laws went nuts over this soup. It has such depth of flavor and character. We added Italian croutons for some crunch, and I used bacon because it was cheaper, but this soup is just wonderful.

I love this - I made it many times but I also add a couple of carrots for a bit of sweetness. Delicious!

This recipe was so simple, yet delicious. Sometimes I get worried when there aren't a lot of ingredients, I am afraid it will compromise the flavor, however this soup really blew me away, as silly as that sounds. I sautéed the leeks in a little bacon fat for extra flavor and I think it really made a difference! Thanks Emeril!

This is a go to meal for us. The recipe makes A LOT thus I have learned that it freezes well. I agree that the immersion blender is the way to go. I also add a splash of sherry at the very end for an extra layer of flavoring. Sometimes I have added a couple of hand fulls of fresh spinach just prior to blending. A good way to sneak veggies without altering the delicious flavors of this soup.

Genuine heart warmer for a cold winter night. I used an immersion blender and it was great for integration of all the flavors.

Love this soup. Made it just like the stated recipe. I puree about 1/2 of it. My husband likes some potato chunks left in it. Freezes well also.
