*****If you soup is not as thick as you like, BEFORE adding milk, remove approximately one cup of broth and add 1 tbsp of corn starch. SLowly add this back in once it is smooth. Allow to come to a boil and repeat if it is still not thick enough for you. The milk is not going to thin the soup very much.
