This soup is spicy, sweet and so delicious! I chose to not use the yougut + pine nut topping and instead topped the soup with a little bit of sour cream and green onion. I added the honey directly into the soup to still get the a bit of that sweet component into the dish. I also added a couple of bay leaves to the mix while cooking and pulled them before I blended it. Super easy to make ad oh so good! Cheers!

This soup came out perfect as outlined in the recipe. The ginger flavor was just right. I made the soup in the morning and added the yogurt mixture just before serving. The ginger built up over the course of the day and added the perfect level of spice and heat. I highly recommend it. I might feature it at the next gourmet dinner we host.

This was very easy to make. I was looking to try a new soup recipe and wound up having two bowls of it. I did make a couple of changes: I had to cook the potatoes and carrots a little longer, as they weren't tender after the suggested cooking time. I also added ground ginger and additional honey, because the flavor needed a "bump." Ok...I cook carrots all the time with a ginger, brown sugar and honey glaze, so maybe I was looking for a similar flavor. I did like the flavor of the thyme and ginger. I'll make this one again. I gave it four stars only because I had to tweak it, but that's just me.

Was fairly easy to make. I didn't have an immersion blender so I just used a regular one. It came out just as good. I think either the soup or the sour cream topping tasted too much like thyme. I would have put a little bit less of that in. But all in all, my girl friends all loved it!

I was surprised at how good this was. It was sweet and savory at the same time. Easy to prepare with very little ingredients. I cut the recipe in half because I only had one bag (1 lb. of carrots. I will make a full recipe next time so that I have some to freeze. Way to go Guy!!

I loved this soup. I didn't use quiet as much ginger because I am not a big ginger fan. The soup was great and the honey yogurt added just the right zing. My kids even ate it.

I loved this soup! It was very simple to prepare, even though I don't have a dutch oven it worked fine in a stockpot. The pieces don't have to be exact since you blend it at the end. I don't have an immersion blender so the end took a little more time and more dirty dishes, but worked like a charm. Delicious and creamy even without the yogurt and pine nut mixture which I ommitted. I would give a generous serving though, since it is tasty but really mostly veggies and not all that filling. YUM. I'm looking forward to the leftovers in my freezer!

I was looking for something different for a cold New England Snowy day. This really hit the spot!

Guy made this soup look so easy to make, so I thought I'd give it a try. I forgot to buy the pine nuts and yogurt, so instead I made some croutons to put on top and they were great.

Overall this soup was as easy to make as it looked on tv, especially because the size of the cut veggies doesn't really matter since you need an immersion blender at the end anyway. The taste was delicious, and the creamy, thick texture makes you think you're eating a heavier, richer soup when in fact it's just veggies and stock so it's very healthy!
