    I deviated from the recipe a little. I used 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. pepper. A bit too much pepper, next time 1/4 tsp. Added 1 can evaporated skim milk, 1/4 c. Parmesan, and 3 cl. garlic. Thickened with 2 Tbls. corn starch, not flour. Keeper! Very versatile. - 11/2/09

    Good basics but needs more seasoning. I added some garlic, some fresh rosemary & lots of pepper. I also thickened it with some instant mashed potatoes instead of the flour. I think it could also benefit from a broth or onion soup. Or try pureed winter squash or yams as a thickener. - 3/19/08

    Very good! I substituted Zucchini for the celery. Left out the salt because we are on a low sodium diet. - 1/19/10
