I actually modified this recipe a bit and cooked it in my crock pot - soup needs to cook for a long time so the crock pot just seems like the perfect vehicle for this recipe. Anyhow I used regular lentils - other than the internet I couldn't find any lentils other than plain ordinary lentils! I did not use leeks, thyme or tomato paste. I exchanged the celery with 1/2 tsp. celery seed and added 1/2 tsp. cayenne powder. I just threw everything except the kielbasa into the crock pot and cooked it on high for about 4 hours. About 30-45 minutes prior to serving I added the sausage. I also did not serve it with wine or parmesan cheese. It was so delicious. And super easy.

I did not add the sausage in ordr to make this a veggie meal so maybe that is why I didn't enjoy it and was about to throw the whole batch of soup out when I gave it another try the next day. 2nd and 3rd day leftovers were enjoyable after I had poured it over rice and added a handful of melted cheddar cheese! Yummm

This soup is fantastic! I had not had lentils until I watched Ina cook this soup and I just had to give it a try. What a wonderful flavor -- so rich and hearty. Like many stews and soups, this is even better the next day. We also freeze the leftovers and it keeps very well that way.

Very Tasty Soup! Highly Recommend this one! Great Wintertime treat, served it with a nice crusty bread and your meal is complete. I made this with lower sodium options in mind, low sodium chicken broth and light kielbasa, it came out great and no one knew the difference.

With or without the sausage, this is the BEST soup I've ever made. I can't say enough good about it. The only thing I did differently was add 2 quarts chicken stock and 1 quart beef stock only because that was all I had on hand.

I thought it was good, but it does involve too much sodium for someone who is trying to eat with a health conscious resolve in mind. It has too large an amount of Kielbasa for anyone trying to make wiser food choices. The taste was good, but will have to tweak it for a healthier alternative.

This is truly a winner. I first made this soup from her first cookbook in 2000. At the time I had a hock on hand which I used. Delicious! I've also made it with the sausage for a different favor and without meat with vegetable broth for some friends who are veggies. I have been making this once a year since Ina first posted it. You definitely need the small lentils. Give it a try!!!
