INGREDIENTS

  • 4 medium-sized Potatoes
  • 4 cups Chicken or Vegetable Broth
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste optional

Garnish Options (optional):

  • Chives for garnish
  • Shredded Cheese for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Peel and cut 4 medium-sized potatoes into small, uniform cubes. This ensures even cooking and a smoother texture in the soup.
  • In a large pot, combine the potato cubes and 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender. This typically takes about 15-20 minutes.
  • Use an immersion blender to carefully blend the cooked potatoes and broth until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the mixture to a blender in batches, exercising caution with hot liquid.
  • Return the blended soup to the pot over low heat.
  • Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream, stirring continuously to combine. Ensure the soup heats through without boiling to prevent curdling.
  • Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper as desired. Adjust the quantities based on your preference and the saltiness of the broth.
  • Ladle the creamy potato soup into bowls.
  • Garnish with optional toppings such as chopped chives, shredded cheese, for added flavor and visual appeal.
