Dan what a delicious sipping soup, I love a mug of rich soup that can be sipped slowly and enjoyed. This one with no milk, is different, thanks.
ReplyDeleteI like the orange rind you added to this classic soup. sounds delicious.
ReplyDelete@FoodHunter: the orange surprised me. I'm not much for orange flavoured anything, unless I'm eating an orange. I thought it would overpower the flavour, but it's not a dominant flavour.
