This soup was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

I'm not a huge fan of cream soups, but this one was actually pretty good. I liked the addition of the herbs and vegetables.

This soup was okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping for, but it was still a good meal.

I followed the recipe exactly but my soup turned out too watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.

This soup was a little bland for my taste. I think I would add more herbs and spices next time.
