POTATO POBLANO SOUP

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup Crema, Creme Fraiche or sour cream
1/2 cup grated Anejo cheese (optional)
2 strips bacon, cut into 1/2-inch wide pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
4 Poblano chiles, roasted, seeded, peeled and diced
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon fresh black pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 quart chicken stock
6 medium Yukon Gold potatoes or 8-10 small red new potatoes, unpeeled, chopped

Steps:

  • In a heavy Dutch oven or stockpot, fry the bacon over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until it starts to brown. Toss in the onions, half of the diced Poblanos, the salt and pepper and cook until slightly golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Spoon out any excess fat. Stir in the garlic and cook briefly just to release the aroma, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the chicken stock, add the potatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook 20 minutes. Puree in a food processor or blender just until smooth, being careful not to over-process. Over-working will result in a gummy soup. Return to the pot, stir in the Crema, Creme Fraiche or sour cream and bring just to a boil. Stir in the remaining Poblanos for garnish. Sprinkle with grated Anejo, if desired, and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or russet potatoes are good choices for this soup, as they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Roast the poblano peppers before adding them to the soup: Roasting the poblano peppers brings out their smoky flavor and makes them easier to digest.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth that is flavorful and has a rich taste.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: The potatoes should be cooked until they are tender, but not mushy.
  • Add the corn and black beans at the end of cooking: This will help to keep them from overcooking and becoming mushy.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and cumin to taste, and adjust the seasonings as needed.
