I did enjoy the soup. :-) The best part for me is that it can be fiddled with (my favorite quality in a recipe). I am not a Gorgonzola fan, so I swapped it out for Gruyere. I also added a couple tablespoons of bourbon at the beginning and another one at the end. It adds a subtle mellow quality that nothing else offers. Very yummy. I only had two issues with the recipe; it is hard to get that perfect simmer (not the recipe's fault at the end of the day), and when you add the cheese at the end, you need to dump it, stir it, remove it from the heat completely and serve it immediately. I left it on the low heat and the cheese became the consistency of loose bubblegum. Not something you want in your smooth soup. Otherwise, I found the combination and amount of ingredients nearly perfect. Overall a very pleasing soup. I was looking for a recipe that allowed me to emulate the best broccoli cheese soup I ever had in my life and this one got me pretty darn close. Once I fished out the funky cheese, of course. Really, it was lovely, and I will keep the recipe and make it many times again. Thanks for sharing.
