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.)

MOM'S PLAIN POTATO SOUP



MOM'S PLAIN POTATO SOUP image

Talk about comfort food! This was IT when I was growing up. Our mother was more or less a plain cook. She grew up on a farm and didn't much go in for frills in her cooking. When she was learning to cook, speed and practicality were prized assets. There were eight family members to feed, not to mention the hired hands. So for the...

MY MOM'S EASY POTATO SOUP



My Mom's Easy Potato Soup image

I know there are a lot of potato soup recipes on here, but this is the best I have ever had. The onion flavor adds a little something extra, and it is so easy and delicious. Everyone loves this soup...even my incredibly picky roommate. It cooks for a while; if you have a crock pot, which I don't, you can let is simmer for a while and forget about it. Also, this can be doubled easily. I hope you all enjoy.

MOM'S POTATO SOUP WITH SPAETZLES



Mom's Potato Soup with Spaetzles image

Spaetzles are little fat noodles used in many German recipes. Mom always made them for her potato soup. Here is her recipe.

Provided by Kathie Carr

Categories     Cream Soups

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

SOUP:
4-6 large potatoes, peeled and cut in chunks
1 qt chicken broth (4 cups)
1 large onion, finely chopped
1/4 c butter
1-2 Tbsp all purpose flour (use more if you like thick soup, less if you prefer thinner)
2 c milk or half and half
salt and pepper to taste
SPAETZLES:
1/2 c plus 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 medium egg, beaten

Steps:

  • 1. SOUP: Cook potatoes and onions at medium heat in chicken broth (uncovered) until they are tender. In a heavy skillet melt the butter over low heat. Stir in flour and cook until bubbly. Slowly add about half of the milk, stirring constantly. Add this mixture to the hot, cooked potatoes and onion mixture. Use a potato masher to break up potatoes a bit. Add the rest of the milk and the salt and pepper. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat until hot and just bubbly.
  • 2. SPAETZLES: Stir together flour and salt. Mix in egg. Mixture should be the consistency of thin mashed potatoes. If necessary add a bit more flour or a little milk to adjust consistency.
  • 3. ADDING SPAETZLES TO SOUP: Use a knife to "cutand push" a thin slice of spaetzle dough away from the bowl they are in and into the soup.Repeat until dough is used up. Speatzles should be approximately 1 inch long and 1/8-1/4 inch wide. A little larger is OK. Simmer soup until spaetzles are cooked.
  • 4. FINISHING: If soup is not thick enough, place 1 tablespoon of flour with 1/2 cup cold milk in a shaker and shake until mixed well. Add to the soup, stir frequently, until desired thickness is reached. Adjust seasoning. Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of potatoes: This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Yukon Gold, red potatoes, and russets are all good choices.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: You want them to be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Use a good quality broth: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. If you don't have time to make your own, use a low-sodium store-bought broth.
  • Add your favorite vegetables: This is a great way to customize your soup and make it your own. Some good options include carrots, celery, onion, and corn.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings: This is where you can really make your soup unique. Some good options include garlic, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
  • Serve your soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt: This will add a creamy richness to the soup and help to balance out the flavors.

Conclusion:

Redneck potato soup is a hearty, comforting, and delicious soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying meal, give this soup a try.
