Potato Soup

1/30/2010

The first time my friend Teri invited us to her house back in our Ft. Knox, Kentucky days she made this potato soup for us.  I knew from the first bite that Teri and I would be friends forever.  Teri and I have been through a lot together, and I look forward to being her neighbor again in the near future.

Teri did not give me exact measurements on this, and normally I don't measure when making this soup either, but I did try to pay attention so I could give you approximate measurements.....

Potato Soup

5 pound bag of potatoes, peeled and dice
small bag of baby carrots, chopped fine
small onion, dice
3 celery stalks chopped fine
3 quarts chicken broth (I use chicken base - you can find it by the chicken bullion cubes)
1 cup heavy cream
1TBL butter
2 TBL flour

Combine chicken broth & veggies (but not potatoes) till soft - maybe 15 minutes or so.
Add potatoes, boil till soft, maybe 15-20 more minutes
Turn heat down
Add heavy cream

In small bowl melt butter, then combine butter & flour together to form a paste, add about 1/2 cup of broth from soup to paste, mix well (till all lumps are gone), then add to butter/flour combo to soup. Let simmer for a couple of minutes

Top with cheddar cheese, chives, bacon bits, sour cream.....
