    Made this dish for a dinner party... A huge hit....Read the reviews about to much liquid...I added another pound of shrimp which gave it more consistency. Also to the raw shrimp ( I'm from cajun country I add about a table spoon of liquid crab boil at the end of cooking i added a half of lemon juice... Will prepare this for Thanksgiving dinner party... SUPERB!!!

    This was pretty good! It wasn't as creamy as I was hoping. I'm sure I could have added more cream to get this effect, but I didn't want the extra calories. Overall, pretty good. I probably won't make it again though. DONT SKIP THE SHERRY! Gives the best flavor!

    Ina does it again! This was the best and easiest bisque recipe I have found. As others have mentioned, be careful not to puree too much if you want a little texture. Fabulous bisque! I'm going to substitute lobster next time!

    I though this soup was ok, a little on the salty side, so I would cut the salt next time, if I make it again.

    Respectfully to rjclark77. Been complaining for years that there is no place to make a comment. I don't like it either.

    This was absolutely fabulous and very easy to make! I too prefer it a bit more chunky so didn't puree it quite as much.

    This soup is fabulous. I made it for my family and even my super picky teenage daughter loved it.

    This is a great soup base but needs a little more texture, so I added chunks of lobster poached in the seafood stock. It also needs more heat so I added chili flakes and the color was kind of boring, so I topped it with finely chopped herbs.

    This is a delicious version of shrimp bisque, possibly better than you'll find in a restaurant. It is very important to use seafood stock, and simmer the shrimp shells to develop the flavor. We like our bisque with more bite, so I increased the cayenne pepper to 1/4 tsp. If you want a thicker soup, don't add water to the simmered seafood stock, perhaps use a few more shrimp, and puree to your desired thickness. My husband and I do not understand the poor reviews; we don't think the directions were followed, and perhaps substitutions were used which created a poor product. The sherry and cognac/brandy are a must and cannot be skipped. This is truly an outstanding shrimp bisque!
