This soup is excellent, and didn't suffer from my substituting chicken broth for the vegetable broth (probably should have checked the pantry before starting to cook)! Also tastes quite good cold on a hot day.

Who forgot to invite the flavour? I doubled the ginger and bland as bland can be. Was looking promising until I added the half-and-half and any flavour from the carrots/ginger disappeared. I even added nutmeg and it did nothing! Too bad. At least it was really easy to make.

Exchange ginger for 1/4 c. fresh ginger. Add a sweet potato. I added a touch of cream on top for serving. Otherwise with a high enblender no cream is required. I have a Vita Mix. Excellent recipe.

I love this recipe. I tweaked it a little, though. I only used 1 cup of 1/2&1/2, and I added some medium curry spice. It was a hit!

This was the BEST soup I've ever had. Easy to make and received rave reviews. Wouldn't change a thing!

Really good recipe. I like the heat from the ginger. I added fresh parsley, but I next time I'll make add some cilantro. I used 1 cup of light cream and 1 cup of 1% milk and it was still rich and creamy, without most of the fat.

I thought the soup was average. I scooped a spoonful of sour cream into each bowl and that helped kick up the taste a little bit.

I found this to be a very bland tasting soup. I added vegetables and an assortment of spices but nothing seemed to make it stand on its own.

This is the first review I have ever made. I joined just so I could say how delicious this is! The only change I made was using 2 cups of heavy cream instead of half and half and leaving out the salt. I think the vegetable broth had enough salt that more wasn't necessary. I had no trouble blending this in my blender and I did not let it get very cold before blending (I saw other reviewers saying how they had to let it get really cold before it would blend). It was velvety smooth and absolutely wonderful. I should have doubled the recipe!
