Hi Eric,
I loved this show – just saw it recently- and I decided to make your soup for Halloween this year. It was a great success, I used a bit of bacon and a stock cube instead of veggie broth. I have a request already to make it again SOON and I’ll try some cubed ham in it then. Full marks and can we have more fall video’s/recipes?
🙂 Katja
