I fixed this soup one New Year's Eve and had family over. My cousin's husband came up to me and hugged my neck and said he HAD to have the recipe. He said he had eaten a soup that tasted exactly like this one on his honeymoon 15 years ago and has been craving it ever since and this night his craving was finally satisfied after all those years...
