So yummy! I'm very proud of the final results. I omitted the sour cream as I didn't have any. I did one tsp of dried parsley. Pureed half an onion and 3 cloves of garlic. Besides that I stuck exactly to the recipe. It was a wonderful Sunday dinner, I look forward to making it for family.

I have made this soup several times. I follow the recipe as is, except I don't often have sourcream, so I usually use plain yogurt.

Excellent-the only change I made was using only 1 tsp dill, and that seemed to be enough-I also added some pearl barley for fibre - thanks for the recipe-will definately make again

Very good! I added some Maggi Seasoning at the End. It's my favorite and I put it on pretty much everything.

This was excellent. I used only 1 tsp. dill weed and 2 tsp. paprika, added 2 minced cloves of garlic with the onions and used 1/2 & 1/2 instead of milk. I don't normally vary from the original recipe unless there are a lot of changes from reviewers, but in this case I did and was pleased with the outcome.

This was really good. I pureed the soup to make it thicker because I used it as a main course. I'm sure I will make this again, but I might add some meat to it, just for a bit more flavor and a bit more filling.

Wow. I think I found a new favorite Mushroom Soup recipe. I love the dill flavor and the tartness of the sour cream in this soup. I wouldn't change a thing but I think that if you didn't like the addition of sour cream it would also taste great without it. Thanks for sharing this recipe with us.

I've made this several times now - it's my absolute favorite mushroom soup recipe. It's so flavorful and rich, even with using some lighter ingredients - skim milk, some fat-free half and half, reduced fat sour cream . The only things I've adjusted over time is I now rough chop the sliced mushrooms before sauteing, cut back on the amount of onion, and I usually leave out most, if not all, of the salt as it just doesn't need it. I've also tried it with some nice and meaty cremini mushrooms. This soup has such an interesting combination of flavors but is so delicious.

This soup is the BEST mushroom soup I've ever eaten! I love its creaminess. I'm not so sure if there's a point in adding the sour cream. It had a really nice consistency before I added it...I think its just adding extra calories. Anyway, this was great. I will defiantly be making this soup again and again and again. Also, I was thinking it may be really good with tender pieces of beef. Cook soup on low for a couple of hours to tenderize the meat. Im going to try that next time.

I've made this soup at least half a dozen times and have passed the recipe along to my friends. There just isn't any other soup like it and the dill makes it special. I use lowfat milk and skip the sour cream because it is just as delicious without it. It is also key to use fresh parsely. The parsely gives it a fresh flavor.

This was good but I've had better at restaurants. I think 2 cups of onion is excessive, I would recommend 1 cup. I also thought there was too much dill. I would start with one tsp and add more later if you don't think it's enough. I used all low fat ingredients and it didn’t take away from the flavor but I think half and half instead of milk would be excellent.

Delicious and very authentic!!! My wife is from Hungary and I made this as a suprise for her on our anniversary. She said it was the best mushroom soup she had ever eaten! I did add a couple of crushed cloves of garlic to the onions, and when I served the soup I added a teaspoon of sour cream right to the top of the soup(they usually do this in Hungary)

Fabulous, soul-warming soup! Love it! It's very filling and is beautiful for the LONG, DARK days of winter! (and for all other days, too!!) In my opinion, this does not need any tweeking; make as directed. Try it!! You won't be disappointed!!
