Rich Viennese Potato Soup image

This is a smooth soup, and can be changed by using different broth in the recipe for a different taste sensation. You can make this vegetarian by using vegetable broth or stock instead of the beef or chicken broth. If you do that, then I recommend using buttermilk in place of the cream.

This is the worst soup I've ever had. I threw it away after one bite.

This soup is a waste of time. It's bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The soup was good, but I found it to be a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper to taste, and that helped.

This soup was a bit too rich for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Otherwise, it was very good.

This soup is heavenly! The flavors are so rich and complex, and the texture is velvety smooth. I especially love the hint of nutmeg and the crispy croutons. I will definitely be making this soup again and again.
