This recipe was a complete disaster. I followed the directions exactly and it turned out inedible.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I'll have to try it again.

This soup was a bit too thick for my taste. I added some extra broth and it was perfect.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I'm sure it would be great if you toned down the spices.
