Potato soup

You will love this easy homemade potato soup with potatoes, veggies, garlic, and a luscious creamy broth. This soup is comforting and loaded with flavor. Once you see how easy it is to make this soup, you’potato soup be making it all the time!

The soup is simple so the ingredients you use matter. Potatoes: You can use any type of potato, but we highly recommend using Yukon Gold potatoes. There’s no need to peel them, and when cooked, they are buttery and almost melt in your mouth. We use Yukon Gold potatoes to make mashed potatoes and these crispy roasted potatoes, too. Veggies: Sure this is potato soup, but we love to add a few cups of extra veggies.

Onions are a must, carrots add color and some sweetness, and chopped celery add flavor and texture. Broth: For the most flavor, use a good quality chicken stock from the store or use homemade. When reaching for store-bought broth, we go for low-sodium. Cream: We add a little cream at the end of cooking.

Using cream isn’t the only option, though. Try half-and-half, sour cream, cream cheese or plain yogurt in its place. Cheese: Cheese is an optional ingredient, but if you have some on hand, it adds a lovely richness to the soup. For soup that rivals cheesy baked potatoes, use sharp cheddar. Cook onions, carrots, and celery in butter until soft.
