    We loved this soup. Easy and inexpensive to make. I agree with the poster who recommended not to skimp on the ginger. I used a dollop of plain yogurt in each bowl rather than cream. It was so good we ate it again for breakfast the next morning.

    This soup is very good but I would not do it on a regular basis. A lot of chopping that was really time consuming. Additionally, sautéing the vegetables had to be done in three batches in order to do a true sauté. I was even using a large 12" sauté pan. Used a submersible blender so I did not have to wait for the soup to cool. Worked like a charm.

    Made this at the last moment as the first course for a Rosh Hashonah dinner. It is easy and can probably be done with whatever is in the house. Don't stint on the ginger - it may look like a lot but it will provide plenty of mellow flavor, along with a subtle kick. Left out the cream at the end, as the soup had a perfect texture and consistency without it. Plenty of salt and pepper (more than indicated and we had rave reviews.

    I've made this recipe a half a dozen times and I feel like it's missing one ingredient! Haven't figured out yet.

    This is delicious and extremely healthy. I like a thinner soup so I added about a cup more of broth and I also chopped up an additional sweet potato to add in for texture vs. all puree.
    I didn't use cream, doesn't need it in my opinion. Also, I didn't have leeks but I did have some green onions on hand and it tastes great.

    What a refreshing taste!! I love making soup, and this is by-far, one of the best! I would love to try the doulop of sour cream instead of the heavy cream next time. I am even planning to make a large pot for this year's Thanksgiving dinner! Thank you.

    Very easy, very satisfying. It seem like a pretty fool proof recipe since I had to make a few minor modifications and it was still excellent. I'm motivated to get an immersion blender to make it even easier to prepare next time.

    I have prepared this soup has on many occasions and it has NEVER failed to turn out wonderful. I served it to my sister who does not cook and 2 weeks later she called to ask for the recipe AND she made it herself and loved it all over again. If you are on a budget and you want a wonderful, healthy soup for your family this is the one. I encourage everyone to try this once - you will turn into a believer.
