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

Ingredients

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.

Tips:

Use a good quality potato. Russet potatoes are the best choice for potato soup, as they are starchy and will break down easily, creating a smooth and creamy soup.
Peel and dice the potatoes evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too many potatoes to the pot, they will not cook evenly and the soup will be lumpy.
Use a flavorful broth. Chicken broth or vegetable broth are both good choices. You can also use water, but the soup will be less flavorful.
Add your favorite seasonings. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, chili powder, or paprika.
Don't overcook the potatoes. The potatoes should be tender, but not mushy.
Serve the soup immediately. Potato soup is best served hot. You can garnish it with chopped parsley, chives, or bacon bits.

Conclusion:

Potato soup is a quick and easy meal that can be made with just a few simple ingredients. It is a great way to use up leftover potatoes, and it can be customized to your own taste. Whether you like it thick or thin, creamy or chunky, there is a potato soup recipe out there for everyone. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give potato soup a try.
