Loved this. I halved the recipe to serve just one, but really wish I'd made the full amount. The flavors are perfect together, and I know I'll make this yummy soup again. Thanks for sharing! Made for Best of 2016 tag game.

Easy to make, silky, and scrumptious with definite Asian flavors that come through beautifully. Topped with the sour cream mixture and it is a winner. Because I only had almond milk in the fridge, I decided to use some coconut milk instead. I don't believe that it compromised this soup as it came out yum. Thank you MsPia for sharing.
