Season with salt and pepper.

LEMON POTATO SOUP
Steps:
- Peel and cube potatoes and then soak in water while preparing sauce. Put lemon juice, oil, garlic, bouillon, oregano, salt, pepper and 2 cups of chicken broth in a ziplock bag. Dry off potatoes and add to bag. Add enough broth to cover potatoes, mix around and marinate for at least one hour turning every 20 mins. Empty bag into a stock pot and add remaining chicken broth. Bring to a boil on high heat and continue to boil until potatoes are soft (approx 15 -20 mins). Once they break apart easily with a fork, blend with a emulsifying blender or in a traditional blender in small batches until semi-smooth consistency. Now add the 1/2 - 1 cup of light cream if desired. If the soup is too thick for your liking, you can add more chicken broth or water to get the desired consistency.
Tips for Making Lemon Potato Soup
- Use a good quality vegetable broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. You can use store-bought vegetable broth or make your own.
- Don't overcook the potatoes. You want them to be tender but not mushy. About 15 minutes of simmering should be enough.
- Use fresh lemon juice. Bottled lemon juice can have a harsh flavor. Fresh lemon juice will give your soup a brighter, more refreshing taste.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and paprika to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
- Garnish the soup with fresh herbs. Chopped parsley, chives, or dill are all good choices.
