    Very Good
    I added a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce when adding the broth. Other than that followed recipe as written soup taste great. - 11/8/17

    Incredible!
    Awesome! I added balsamic vinegar instead of the wine. Learned that from Tyler Florence on the Foodnetwork. Yummy - 8/15/15
