Cooking steps for Potato Soup
- 1Potato soup is the cozy bowl of creamy goodness that feels like a warm hug on a chilly day—simple, hearty, and loaded with flavor. This potato soup recipe is your ultimate go-to for quick comfort food vibes. Let's dive in!
- 2Start by peeling and chopping 1 large potato per person into bite-sized cubes. Pro tip: The creamier the potato variety, the dreamier your soup will be. Toss the potato cubes into a pot of salted water and boil until fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- 3In a separate pot, heat a drizzle of oil or a pat of butter over medium heat. Add ¼ cup each of finely chopped celery (don't skip the leaves!) and onion per serving, and saut until soft and fragrant. Season lightly with salt and pepper to bring out the sweetness of the veggies.
- 4Return the cooked potatoes to the pot with the saut ed celery and onion. Use a potato masher or a fork to mash them slightly—leave a few chunks for texture if that's your thing. Add enough water or vegetable stock to cover the potatoes and veggies, stirring well to combine.
- 5Bring the soup to a gentle simmer and let it bubble away for 5-7 minutes to marry the flavors. Slowly stir in ¼ to 1/2 cup of half-and-half or cream per serving, depending on how indulgent you're feeling. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes, being careful not to let the cream boil.
- 6Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and a generous grind of fresh black pepper. For an extra flavor boost, toss in a pinch of herbs like thyme or parsley if you're feeling fancy. Ladle the potato soup into bowls and garnish with a swirl of cream, a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs, or even crispy croutons for that pro-level finish.
- 7This recipe of potato soup is rich, creamy, and oh-so-comforting—a bowl of pure happiness that's perfect for cozy nights or anytime you need a little TLC. Grab a spoon and dig into the ultimate comfort food!
