This was excellent. I wanted to make half the recipe and did not want to open a second can of chicken broth for just 2 ounces so I used 1 can broth and 3/4 cup cream. For half the recipe I used an 8 ounce jar oysters and would have liked more. Next time I will use 12 ounces.

I wish I could give this soup more stars. Excellent! I did omit mushrooms - simply don't care for them. I combined 1/2 Cup flour w/1 Cup milk in a gravy shaker. Increased chicken broth to 6 Cups, brought chicken broth and 1/2 Cup butter to boil, and stirred in gravey thickener. Add veggies and spices, simmer for 30 minutes then added oysters.

This was by far the best oyster stew I have ever eaten. It wasn't hard to make and the taste was outstanding!

We used the oyster liquor in lieu of the chicken broth, and shallots in lieu of the onions. The carrots we omitted. More spices were added, otherwise it was good.

Although I prefer my regular and simple oyster stew this was very tasty for a change.

I made this for my mother for her birthday because she and my father love oysters so much. I don't really care for oysters but decided to try this. The soup was very tasty and creamy. Its a lovely soup as well. It has a small kick to it too, which we all liked.

This is a wonderful recipe and I'll probably make it again for Christmas. To lighten it a bit, I halved the butter used and also used half evaporated milk and half cream. I added a little white wine and paprika as well. Yummy!

Definitely do what the other reviewer said--make a double batch!! I never eat leftover seafood (ugh! Usually turns too fishy for me.), but this delicious soup tasted even better the next day. Definite keeper. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Just made this soup. Made the following substitutions in the recipe: Can chopped asparagus instead of artichoke hearts, half and half instead of heavy cream, margarine instead of butter and I added four diced potatoes (cooked). Good Grief this was good stuff. Recommend making a double batch on your first try. A keeper for sure

My family and I are positively giddy after having this for our Christmas Eve supper! Other than substituting diced potatoes for mushrooms, I followed the recipe precisely. It was perfect! Thank you for posting.

This is very good. Bursting with flavor (it has a great spiciness), but not too overwhelming. I followed the recipe exactly but used one 8 ounce can of whole oysters. I bought the cheapest can of oysters at the store, but will not do that again - the oysters were kind of icky. Next time will buy a more expensive can of oysters in hopes that they'll be better quality.

Wonderful recipe - best oyster soup I've ever had! I had to use canned oysters & juice, and it was still delicious. I'm sure it's even better with fresh. I substituted half & half for the heavy cream, and will probably try to reduce the butter next time, just to lighten it up. I'll definitely make this again!

This was the best oyster stew I've ever had! It is definitely not bland; nor are the spices overpowering as I thought they might be. I suspect that if I were to have followed the recipe exactly the soup would have been just as good, if not better. However, I did have to make the following substitutions: - 2 cans (8oz) whole oysters (use 1/2 liquid from the cans) instead of fresh - One 15 oz can asparagus (drained) instead of artichoke hearts - 1/2 cup half and half and 1/2 cup skim milk instead of 1 cup heavy cream
