This is a good soup recipe. Nothing too fancy, but very tasty. I made it once with the raisins, and once without. It is good both ways, but I think I prefer it without. The raisins give a very interesting sweet taste, and is definitely worth a try.

This was quite good, and it adapted well to the crockpot. I did reduce the broth to about 8 cups, which made a hearty soup. I wonder if the number of servings in the original recipe is right. . . that seems like an awful lot of soup for 4 people. I'm sure I will make this recipe again occasionally.

it was really good as a base soup, although i admit that i had to make a few adjustments. i added lots of green vegetables and only kept the water/stock to 6 cups, not 12. in making it i really feel that 12 cups would make it way too thin.

This is my recipe. I like Orrington Farms brand broth the best. It's ok to use minced garlic from a jar. Feel free to add more veggies! The cornstarch/water mixture is optional. THANKS!
