My Irish Great Grandmother fixed this regularly. My kids know they will have it every Halloween, then all winter long.

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (1 pound) package bacon
1 onion, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
6 potatoes, scrubbed and cubed
salt and pepper to taste
2 (12 fluid ounce) cans evaporated milk

Steps:

  • Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate, crumble, and set aside.
  • Cook and stir onion and celery in the remaining bacon grease over medium heat until the onion is translucent and tender. Drain excess grease, then stir in potatoes. Add water to cover all but 1 inch of the potatoes. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to medium-low, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes, stirring often. Stir in the evaporated milk, and continue cooking until warmed through. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in bacon just before serving.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out lumpy. I think I didn't blend it long enough.

The soup was a bit too thick for my liking. I had to add more milk to thin it out.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it flavorful.
