ABSOLUTELY ULTIMATE POTATO SOUP



Absolutely Ultimate Potato Soup image

I have made this for many whom have given it the title. This takes a bit of effort but is well worth it. Please note: for those who do not wish to use bacon, substitute 1/4 cup melted butter for the bacon grease and continue with the recipe. (I generally serve this soup as a special treat as it is not recommended for people counting calories.)

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound bacon, chopped
2 stalks celery, diced
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
8 potatoes, peeled and cubed
4 cups chicken stock, or enough to cover potatoes
3 tablespoons butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
3 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until done. Remove bacon from pan, and set aside. Drain off all but 1/4 cup of the bacon grease.
  • Cook celery and onion in reserved bacon drippings until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes. Add cubed potatoes, and toss to coat. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Return bacon to the pan, and add enough chicken stock to just cover the potatoes. Cover, and simmer until potatoes are tender.
  • In a separate pan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the heavy cream, tarragon, and cilantro. Bring the cream mixture to a boil, and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Stir the cream mixture into the potato mixture. Puree about 1/2 the soup, and return to the pan. Adjust seasonings to taste.

HERBED POTATO SOUP (AMAZING)



Herbed Potato Soup (Amazing) image

I found this recipe either on this site (and it's disappeared) or another that I don't remember. I had this recipe memorized last winter! Although, over summer, I forgot, so I came looking for it on here recently. Since I found my written copy and since I don't see it here anymore, I am going to share it with you! What's great about this recipe is what you can do with it. I love to add chicken or cauliflower or broccoli or cheese to it at the end. (Requires an extra step!)

Time 30m

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cups water
1 large onion, chopped
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed (optional)
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1 1/2 cups milk
1 chicken breast, cut and cooked
1/2 head cauliflower or 1/4 head cauliflower, cut into florets
1/2 head broccoli or 1/4 head broccoli, cut into florets
1/2 cup cheese (more or less)

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan.
  • Add potatoes, cook over medium heat until tender. (Note: sometimes I add the cauliflower or chicken to the potatoes while they cook. You don't have to, but it's convenient.) Set aside. DO NOT DRAIN!
  • Meanwhile, in another saucepan, saute onion in the butter until tender. Onions will have a sweet smell and will look glazed over.
  • Stir in the flour, salt, thyme, rosemary (optional), and pepper.
  • Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil. If you like, add the cheese.
  • Cook and stir for 2 minutes.
  • Add potatoes (and extra, optional ingredients) with cooking liquid. Heat through.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil (preferably extra-virgin)
1 cup chopped onion
4 cups canned low-salt chicken broth or vegetable broth
2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 large garlic cloves, peeled
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup minced chives or green onions
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme or 3/4 teaspoon dried

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, sauté until golden, about 10 minutes. Add broth, potatoes, garlic and bay leaf; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer until potatoes are very tender, about 20 minutes. Cool slightly. Discard bay leaf. Coarsely puree soup in blender 1 cup at a time, about 20 seconds per batch (do not overprocess). Return soup to same saucepan. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer until heated through. Ladle soup into bowls. Sprinkle with chives and thyme and serve.

Tips:

  • Using a variety of potatoes: Choose a combination of waxy and starchy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold, Russet, or Red Potatoes, to create a creamy and flavorful soup.
  • Roasting the potatoes: Roasting the potatoes before adding them to the soup enhances their flavor and adds a smoky aroma. Make sure to toss the potatoes with oil and herbs before roasting for a crispy exterior.
  • Using fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, and sage add a burst of flavor to the soup. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but reduce the quantity by half.
  • Adding cheese: Adding a creamy cheese like Gouda or Gruyere to the soup makes it extra rich and decadent. Stir in the cheese at the end of cooking to prevent it from curdling.
  • Adjusting the consistency: The consistency of the soup can be adjusted by adding more broth or milk. For a thicker soup, use less liquid, and for a thinner soup, use more liquid.

Conclusion:

Herbed Potato Soup is a comforting and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. With its creamy texture, roasted potato flavor, and fresh herb aroma, this soup is sure to warm your soul. Whether you serve it as a main course or a side dish, this soup is a crowd-pleaser that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious soup recipe, give Herbed Potato Soup a try and indulge in its creamy and flavorful goodness!
