100% would make again

My sister-in-law telephoned me looking for a good cream of mushroom soup recipe. I gave her this hearty one. It gets its boost from a splash of hot pepper sauce. —Julia Thornely, Layton, Utah

I made this the other night and it was wonderful. I left out the tarragon as I did not have it but used sweet basil instead. I also added steamed asparagus and it was a huge hit.

This was a VERY good 'rich' tasting soup. I made it for dinner, my husband loved it!However due to it's 'bold' flavor, I'd reccomend it as a compliment to dinner.
