HOW TO MAKE PARSLEY SOUP

Steps:

• Boil a large saucepan of water. Fill a 6 quart (6 L) saucepan approximately ¾ full with cold water, and place it on the stove. Set the heat to high, and allow the water to come to a full boil. The pot will boil more quickly if you place a lid on it.
• Cook the parsley for 1 minute. Once the water is boiling, place 1 pound (450 g) of fresh parsley in the pan. Allow the parsley to cook until the leaves become bright green and wilted. That should take approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute. Keep a careful eye on the parsley so you know when it's done. If you cook it too long, you may dilute some of its flavor.
• Drain the parsley and set it in cold water. When the parsley is finished cooking, transfer it immediately to a colander to drain it. Next, place it in a bowl of ice cold water. Let it sit for approximately 1 minute to stop the cooking process. Drain it in the colander a final time to remove the water. While you're draining the cold water from the parsley, it's a good idea to give the leaves a squeeze with a towel or spin them in a salad spinner to ensure that you get rid of any excess moisture.
• Chop the parsley. When the parsley is dry, gather all of the leaves in a pile. Use a sharp knife to give them a rough chop. Be careful not to press on the parsley too hard with the knife or you may bruise the leaves. There's no need to remove the stems from the parsley. The stems actually have a nice, sharp flavor that works well in the soup, and because it's eventually pureed, the stems won't ruin the texture of the soup either.

PARSLEY POTATOES

Steps:

• If you bought pre-washed potatoes, place them in a pot of water and bring to boil. If they're not pre-washed, then scrub your potatoes to make sure that they're clean. Once the water is boiling, add a generous amount of salt (1 to 1.5 tablespoons). Let the potatoes boil for about 30 minutes, until fork tender.
• Chop your onions. Heat up olive oil in a skillet and then add your onions, sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Sauté the onions until soft, and set aside.
• Wash and dry your parsley (you will need the whole bunch). Cut off the stems and chop the leaves.
• Drain the potatoes, add them to the onions, and then add parsley. Combine and mix everything together, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and serve.

PARSLEY SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Heat evoo in a medium pot over medium-high heat Add leeks and sauté for about 5 minutes until they soften. 2. Add garlic and parsnips and cook another 5 minutes. Add parsley, wine, and water and simmer, covered, until parsley is wilted. 3. Puree soup in a blender, or with an immersion blender, until smooth. If desired, pour through a fine-mesh sieve into cleaned saucepan, pressing hard on solids, then discarding them. Reheat if necessary.

POTATO PARSNIP AND LEEK SOUP

Steps:

• Prepare the vegetables: Cut the potatoes into cubes. Cut the dark green part off of the leeks and discard it. (You can also save it for making a vegetable broth.) Slice the white and light green part of the leek in half and rinse well to remove any dirt. Then slice the leek into ¼ inch slices.
• In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until it is crisp. Then, remove the bacon and set it aside for later. Drain the bacon drippings, leaving less than half in the pot. (about 1 tbsp drippings)
• Add the leeks and butter. Saute for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the leeks are slightly softened, but do not let leek brown. Add the garlic, salt, pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Mix in the potatoes, parsnip, broth, thyme, Italian seasoning, and water. Bring the soup to a boil. Then, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook covered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the potatoes and parsnip and very tender. Remove the bay leaf.
• Use an immersion blender to blend the soup to your desired consistency. Or, transfer the soup in batches to a high-powered heat-proof blender and blend until smooth. If the soup is too thick, add a bit more broth or water to reach your desired consistency.
• Taste the soup and adjust the flavor as necessary; adding more salt to enhance the flavor.
• Serve and garnish with chopped bacon, parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley (optional). Enjoy!

CHILI'S BAKED POTATO SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Start by baking potatoes for about an hour in a preheated oven (400 F). Then, set them aside to cool for a few minutes. Melt butter in a saucepan and add onions to it. Saute the onions until brown in color. Stir in flour and mix to make roux for the soup.
• Pour in water along with cornstarch, stock, mashed potatoes, and spices. Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce the heat. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Stir in chopped baked potatoes and half-and-half. Bring it to a boil, reduce the heat, and let it simmer again for about 15 minutes until the soup is thick.
• Now, transfer soup into a bowl with cheddar cheese on top. Garnish with a half teaspoon of bacon and chopped green onion and serve.

POTATO AND PARSLEY SOUP

Steps:

• Quarter the potatoes lengthwise and thinly slice. Chop the celery fine or, if using parsley root, grate.
• Melt the oil(or butter) in a soup pot and add the potatoes, celery, onion, and bay leaves.
• Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Raise the heat, add the wine, and let it reduce until syrupy. Add 1 1/2 cups parsley, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and the water; bring to a boil.
• Lower the heat and simmer, partially covered, until the potatoes have broken apart, about 30 minutes.
• Stir in the cream and remaining parsley and heat through.
• Taste and season with more salt if needed. Add the pepper. Remove the bay leaves and serve.
• Enjoy!
• Variations:.
• Roast 2 heads garlic(with skin left on) that have been rubbed with olive oil, covered with foil(and add a little water to the pan), in a 350*F. oven for 45 minutes. Remove skins and add with the onions and potatoes. You may run the soup through a food mill if desired.
• or.
• Boil 1 bunch greens(mustard greens are especially good) 10-15 minutes, drain, coarsely chop, and add to soup with 2-3 pinches of red pepper flakes. Serve with a few shavings of Parmesan cheese.

PARSLEY-POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a soup pot. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until translucent. Add the garlic and continue to sauté until both are golden.
• Add the water with bouillon cubes, potatoes, and bay leaves. Bring to a rapid simmer, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer gently until the potatoes are just tender, about 20 to 25 minutes.
• Remove about 1/2 cup of the hot liquid with a ladle and transfer it to a small mixing bowl. Combine with the cream cheese and whisk together until smooth and creamy. Stir into the soup along with the parsley and dill.
• Slowly sprinkle in the oats. Simmer for another 20 to 25 minutes over very low heat, or until the potatoes are completely tender.
• Add enough rice milk to give the soup a slightly thick consistency, then season with salt and pepper. Discard the bay leaves. Heat through and serve. This soup thickens as it stands; thin as needed with additional rice milk, then adjust the seasonings.

CREAMY POTATO SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Boil the veggies. Peel the potatoes (2 large potatoes, about 2 lbs) and dice them. I like a fairly small dice, about 1/2 inch. Place in a stock pot or 3 quart pot. If you have not quite 4 cups of potatoes, or more like 5 cups, don't sweat it that's fine.
• Peel the carrots and dice about the same size as the potatoes. Add to the pot.
• Smash and mince 1 clove of garlic and add to the pot.
• Add 3 cups of water to the potatoes and carrots. The water should be just barely covering the vegetables, so add a little more or less to make sure they are just barely covered. (We are not draining these potatoes, this water will be part of the soup.)
• Add a heaping tablespoon of Better Than Bouillon Base. The Roasted Chicken flavor is great, but I also love the Turkey base, it has really rich flavor. If you don't have Better than Bouillon, you can use a couple teaspoons of bouillon granules or cubes. Those are much saltier than the paste so be careful.
• Chop about 1/4 cup fresh parsley, or use 1 tablespoon dried parsley. Add it to the pot.
• Add 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium to keep it at a steady simmer. Vent the lid (tilt it so that steam can escape.) Simmer for about 20 minutes, until the potatoes and carrots are very tender. You should be able to smash one with a fork easily. Remove from heat.
• Use a potato masher and roughly mash the mixture to your desired texture. I like a velvety soup with some chunks. You can leave it very chunky by not mashing at all, or if you want an ultra smooth soup you can use an immersion blender.
• Make the white sauce (bechamel). Meanwhile, in a 2 quart pot or larger, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Once it is melted, add 1/2 cup flour and use a whisk to stir it together into a paste. Add 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook this mixture for 1-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Slowly add the 4 cups of milk, 1 cup at a time. Use the whisk to incorporate the milk into the roux (roux=butter/flour mixture) every time you add more. See photos. It should take a few minutes to add all the milk.* If you dump it in all at once, you will have flour chunks in your soup. Don't be like that.
• Once all the milk is added, keep stirring often so the bottom doesn't scorch. Your heat should still be on medium. Wait until the mixture has come to a boil (consistent bubbles rising from the center) and then let boil for 1 minute, stirring. Remove from heat.
• Pour the white sauce into the pot with the potatoes, using a spatula to scrape all that goodness in. Stir the mixture together.
• Serve warm and garnish with extra chopped parsley, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions.
• Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. Don't freeze this soup! The potatoes absorb tons of moisture, making the white sauce separate, and then it gets grainy on you. No thanks. Time to invite a friend over for soup and stories. I mean shouldn't that be a thing anyway?
