POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Peel, cube, boil, drain and "mush" potatoes to the consistency you like (I like them lumpy, but my kids like smaller pieces).
• In separate pan, melt butter, add flour and cook while stirring for about a minute or so.
• Add half the milk and stir until lumps are out of flour mixture.
• Add remaining milk and on med-high heat, heat to a boil.
• Stir almost constantly or it will scorch.
• After boiling, turn heat off and add remaining ingredients.

Meanwhile, in a small skillet, saute onion in oil until tender; add to potatoes. , In a small bowl, combine the flour, milk and evaporated milk until smooth; add to potato mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; stir in the cream cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 5-10 minutes or until cream cheese is melted and potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally. Garnish with Swiss cheese.,

HOMEMADE POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Start by boiling potatoes until fork tender.
• When potatoes are done, strain out the water and add butter.
• When butter is melted, add flour. Stir gently to make a paste between butter and flour. The paste will coat the potatoes.

UNBELIEVABLY EASY POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Peel and cube potatoes.
• Put in a saucepan along with the onions and celery.
• Add water, but don't quite cover the vegetables.
• Bring to a boil, lower heat, cover and simmer for 25 minutes, or until all of the vegetables are very tender.
• Using a potato masher, coarsely crush the potatoes, but don't mash them--you want chunks left.
• Add enough milk or cream to thin to desired thickness and add salt& pepper to taste.
• (It will take a lot of salt!).

LEEK & POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Melt 50g butter in a heavy saucepan. When it foams, add 450g potatoes, cut into 1cm cubes, 1 small onion, cut the same as the potatoes, and 450g white parts of leeks, sliced and toss them in the butter until they are well coated.
• Season well with salt and freshly ground pepper and toss again. Put a disc of greaseproof paper (called a cartouche by chefs) on top of the vegetables to keep in the steam), then cover the pan with its lid.
• Cook over a gentle heat for 10 mins, or until the vegetables are soft but not coloured.
• Uncover the pan and discard the paper. Pour in 850ml of the light chicken or vegetable stock, bring to the boil and simmer until the vegetables are just cooked - about 5 minutes. Do not overcook or the soup will lose its fresh flavour.
• Purée in a blender until silky smooth, in batches if necessary, then taste and adjust the seasoning. Return the soup to a clean pan and stir in three quarters of a 142ml carton of whipping cream and 125ml full-fat milk.
• To finish the soup, finely shred the white part of 1 leek and gently cook it in a small knob of hot butter for a few mins until it is softened but not coloured.
• Reheat the soup to a gentle simmer (add some extra stock at this point if the soup is too thick for your liking), then pour into warmed bowls.
• Drizzle the remaining cream over each serving, top with a little pile of buttered leeks and a scattering of chives and black pepper and serve at once.

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?

TWO-POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Combine first 4 ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer mixture to blender or processor and puree until smooth. Return soup to saucepan. Stir in rosemary and bring to simmer. Season to taste with salt and pepper.(Can be prepared 2 days ahead; refrigerate. Return to simmer before serving.)

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.

ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS: CREAMY, CHEESY POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat. Add the celery and onions and saute until the veggies begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and toss with a good pinch of salt. Add the chicken stock and simmer until the potatoes soften, about 20 minutes. Then add the milk and butter, and stir until the butter melts.
• At this point you have a few options. If you have an immersion blender, simply stick the wand in the pot and give it a few whizzes, blending some of the soup until it's nice and creamy. You'll still want a good amount of potato chunks in the soup, so don't go overboard, like I tend to do.
• You can also scoop out about 2 cups of the soup and transfer it to a blender or food processor. Blend until creamy and transfer it back to the soup pot.
• Or, you can simply mash a few of the potatoes with a potato masher, leaving it on the slightly chunkier side. It's up to you!
• After you've creamified it, give it another taste and add plenty of salt and pepper if needed.
• Scoop out a little for the kids and keep it simple for them with shredded Cheddar and a kiss of chives! (Chives are optional, of course.) As for you, adult faces, load up your bowls with plenty of chopped bacon, Cheddar, little dollops of sour cream, sliced jalapenos and chives!
