    I left out the milk and added a little less water, I like my soups sticking to the spoon O.o . Served it with some crusty rolls and everyone loved it. Fantastic! - 11/16/09

    It looks like broth is what is meant by the 10 cups water and 2 tsp chicken base. - 4/1/11

    Perfect for the moment. I am making pantry meals, using up food on hand, and I would never have thought to put the sweet potato in my carrot soup. Thanks. - 2/3/10

    I got confused with this recipe because it said to "Add carrots, potato, broth and ginger." but "Broth" was not in the ingredients list, so I was not sure what kind of broth or how much to add. I guessed at this. The rosemary could of been added earlier so it's not stick like. When do you add water? - 12/12/09
