_@yahoo.comI'm not sure what went wrong with my soup. I followed the recipe exactly, but it turned out really watery. I had to add a lot of cornstarch to thicken it up.

te@gmail.comThis soup was a disaster! I followed the recipe exactly, but the soup was way too thick and the flavor was off. I ended up throwing it away.

p71@hotmail.frI followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out great! The only thing I would change is that I would use less salt next time. It was a little too salty for my taste.

ochieng-linford@yahoo.comThis pea soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added more salt and pepper. The mushroom cream sauce was good, but it didn't really add much flavor to the soup.

sikander_a2@yahoo.comI love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I usually add a little extra garlic and thyme, and sometimes I'll use a different type of mushroom, like shiitake or oyster mushrooms. It's always a hit with my friends and family.
