I was a little nervous about adding the orange juice, but i did. And i am very glad of this, because the hint of orange that comes through with every slurp is a delicious surprise…thanks for a wonderful recipe.

I think the chicken broth was an okay move, but it probably could've used the creme fraiche. Instead I gave it some tang by adding some white wine vinegar. Now I'm wishing I had followed the recipe. :o)

Also wanted to tell you how much I loved your book, and I was touched by how you were able to put into words some things I have felt about food but never could quite articulate.

I just made this soup again the other day, for the first time in about a year, and I made a few tweaks, so I decide to update the recipe online. It must have triggered something in your Bloglines, or whatever aggregator you use, Alice Q. and wheresmymind! I saw your comments and thought, “What weird timing! I just updated this two-year-old post, and lo and behold, it gets new comments!” It didn’t occur to me until this morning that it probably showed up in your aggregator as a new post, eh? Either way, you really should try the soup! It’s perfect for this time of year, and so, so good with a bit of creme fraiche! I’ve been eating it for lunch all week…

Either that or another color 😉

I love Pikes Place Market, and I am determined to someday do a stay in Paris like yours. It’s one of those “to do before you die” kind of things I think – or at least it’s one of mine! I made the “rancho la puerta” granola that I found on your recipe list the other day and I am planning to post about it – I love it!

Delicious! I’ll definitely be making this again. Maybe double the quantity, but otherwise the same. Greetings from Cambridge UK, I might take a browse around and see what else I can find we’d like here. Thanks again.

See recipe for details. Phew.
