A very good winter soup! Replaced the fennel bulb by a similar size celeriac root, because that's what I had on hand, and used 1/2 squash, because I felt a whole one would overpower the dish. Reversed the milk to stock ratio, and replaced the wine by stock, to meet my tastes. But instead of said directions, I thoroughly mixed 2-3 tbl. spoon flour in the milk and used it as a slurry (I was pressed for time, but I added 1/3 c. old-fashioned oats too, because I new it would turn out great. I served it simply as is, with a sprinkling of shredded blue cheese. Homey, rustic and, out of this world. Thanks Rachel!

This is one of those great recipes that lend themselves to mix and match. Couldn't get fennel so used some crushed fennel seeds. I also added some cubed chicken. The fresh herbs and vegetables, the nutmeg all made this terrifically subtle and the cream made it rich. Really good.

Great recipe - easy to put together. The combination of vegetables gave it a good flavor, it was creamy without being heavy yet it was filling. Healthy with all the vegetables and because there is no heavy cream in it. Nice after a glass or two of wine (the same wine used in the recipe? even though I didn't have wine and put in some light beer instead, and it still came out great! Thanks Rachel.

Sooo Good! I actually deleted the "creamy" (going lower calorie part and it was amazing! I used fresh thyme, sage, parsley, and bay leaves! Can't wait for my lunch break tomorrow!

I saw this on the show today and just had to try it. It is awesome! As a substitute for the potatoes, I doubled the amount of carrots and parsnips. I also used skim milk rather than whole milk. If you use skim milk, I would recommend constantly whisking the milk mixture for 5 to 7 minutes to ensure that it thickens. Thank you Rachael!!!!
