OK, I never do this... make a recipie not following to t t the first time. But I could not find creme fraiche and subbed in sour cream instread. Nor could I find arugula in my store so did not sub anything for it at all.. and it was still great. I threw in a dash of cracked red peper for a little kick and I love it. Super easy. I roasted the veggies the night before jsut simpley for time sake and that help pack an added punch to the flavor. Good soup and you can keep it leaner without sacraficing quality & taste by using 2% milk vs cream or even whole milk. Ina never fails....

Made this soup last week, and it was a huge hit! My kids loved it! I can't get creme fraise where I live, so I substituted sour cream, and it was fantastic. I also, didn't make my own stock, so I used Rachael Ray's Stock in a box. Loved this soup, and will be making often!! Super Easy!

This was delicious. To add a little more nutrition, I did not peel the potatoes. I didn't have any homemade stock so used organic chicken stock. Maybe that is why my soup turned out a bit on the salty side. I love salt, so I still enjoyed it. However, next time I think I will make it only when I have homemade chicken stock on hand or can find low sodium chicken stock in the stores.

I made this without the creme fraiche because only 1 store in my town carries it and I didn't feel like going out of the way. My husband loved it - tasted like a restaurant quality soup : Thanks!

The soup was very good, but the creme fraiche made it too sour and tangy for my taste. Next time I'll leave out the creme fraiche altogether and think the soup will be better that way.

I made this last night and was so happy with it! I left out the creme fraiche because I completely forgot to get it at the store. However, I made everything else exact to the recipe and it was so good! I can see how the addition of the creme fraiche would have made it creamier, but it was so good without that I wonder if it's worth the extra calories? Definitely will make again!

I was a little nervous at first because I don't have a food processor, but I didn't need it. Just put the potatoes in whole, mashed them up a little with a potato masher and it was great. My fiance couldn't keep his fingers off!!

This was good but very heavy. I loved the shallots and also prepared onions the same way.

Made this soup on a rainy California day and I must say it the best soup I have ever had. A little pricey as the creme fraiche alone was $5. Added only four cups of stock and 2 cloves of garlic during the roasting period, other than that followed the recipe. Ina you are the best chef, your recipes are foul proof. Thank you so much for making me the best cook possible.
