    I made this using 2 cups heavy cream and 2 cups fat-free half and half. I increased the flour to 4 Tblsps. and also added an extra Tblsp. of tomato paste for extra color and depth. One full cup of brandy works best. And 3/4 lb. of shrimp is plenty. This has to be one of Tyler's very best. I'm going to try this with lobster...

    This is the nest shrimp bisque I've ever had/made. Every time I make it my family loves it! And it's such an easy recipe too. Thank you Tyler!!

    Just made this the other evening and it was fabulous! Definitely worth the time - but don't be fooled by the "10 minute" prep time - it takes a bit longer than that. I would also suggest not using all of the shrimp in the soup, it is a bit too much. Save half and make a salad or something with it the next day! Thanks Tyler - this is a family favorite!!

    Ps. This recipe is different than in his ultimate cookbook!

    I have seen him make this several times before I actually did this. I am unable to use the brandy because of health, but I thought it was wonderful without it. The orange I was skeptical on, but loved the flavor, This is definitely going in my cookbook to keep forever!!!!!!

    It took some time to prepare but was well worth the effort. The sauce came out as good as any fancy restaurant. I only had to simmer it for 15 minutes vs. the 30 minutes. BE CAREFUL when lighting the brandy!!! Great dish for dinner guests.

    My husband and guests went wild over this bisque. I didn't have brandy on hand, so I used Grand Marnier. Also I sauteed the shrimp in butter and Essence. Another hit for Tyler !

    This was not fussy or difficult. just put everything in a pot and walk away for a while. My whole family loved it, even my picky 4 year old.

    Made this twice, and it has come out well both times. I did have to deal with skimming the top of the soup several times, which isn't mentioned in the recipe, but that could be a temperature issue?

    One big irritating issue. The amount of ingredients on the show don't match the amounts on the Recipe. Recipe says 1/4 cup brandy, the show 1 cup. That's a big difference. Recipe says "water to cover" show says 3 cups. Recipe says one bay leaf, show says two. Recipe says bring to boil, show says turn to low heat. Not the first time I've had this issue. Somebody should read the menus and watch the shows at the same time for consistency.
