Can I have everyone’s potato soup recipe please? I’m trying to make classic potato soup like my grandmother made, not loaded potato soup. Thanks!
 
I don't measure but here you go.
Dice celery carrots and onions (about 1cup each) in 1/4 inch cubes.
Saute in real butter.
Peel and dice 4 or 5 big white potatoes. Cut in about 5/8 inch cubes.
Rinse in cold water. Add to sautéed veggies in stock pot. Cover with an inch or so of Chicken broth OR water and Chicken bouillon. Add black pepper and minced garlic. Salt if needed. Let it come to a boil then reduce heat a bit. Cook until potatoes are tender. Add in 1 can of evaporated milk. Make slurry w cornstarch ( about 1/4 cup? Maybe 1/3 cup) and milk. Bring soup to boil and immediately add slurry turn down and stir until thickened. Add in fresh or dried parsley.
 
VERY TASTEY ❣️
1 cup of diced onions and carrots sautéed in 1 stick of butter.
Add 1 large can of mushroom soup, stir until well blended.
Stir in 1 cup of milk.
Add one small velvetta cheese, stir on low till melted.
Leave on low and add your pre cooked potatoes.
.
Add milk or cream to desired thickness.
Cook on low as not to scorch.
You will love this soup, and you can use it also to make broccoli soup instead of potatoe.
 
We fry the potatoes .. that have been cubed .. with some chopped onion and some green chili.. and then we add chicken broth and chunks of cheddar cheese
We call a caldo de queso
Or it's potato soup
 
Peel and cube potatoes, boil until the water becomes starchy. While potatoes are cooking, warm up some milk and butter (S/P) and if you want a ¹/³ to ¹/² block of melterd Velveeta cheese. Take out half of the starchy water and add milk mixture and simmer for a few minutes.
You can add cheese, bacon, chives, or nothing at all... I've made it this way for 30+ years and it's always a big hit and soooo simple. Enjoy...
 
we use the Bear Creek Potato Soup from WalMart or Amazon for less tan $4.00… with a pan of cornbread it’s a $5 meal …. taste good too!
 
The secret to ANY good potato soup I’ve found is to BAKE your potato, no matter what recipe you follow. I was astounded at how much better it tasted this way versus boiling.
 
My mother made her with potatoes, onions, celery, and a couple carrots, put all in a kettle with water and bacon grease for seasoning salt and pepper cook till done and always had cornbread. It was absolutely delicious! No milk so I like to put milk in mine. My family also loves it when I make hamburger potato soup and make it thick , we have crackers with that.
 
POTATO SOUP
1 stick butter
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 can cream mushroom
6-8 potatoes cubed.
Milk, (at least 2 cups)
3 strips cooked bacon crumbled (optional)
Simmer potatoes till tender.
While potatoes cook,
Saute onion & celery in butter until tender.
Drain potatoes & add can cream mushroom soup.
Stir well
Add celery, onion & bacon with butter to potatoes & soup. Mix well
Add milk, salt & pepper to your satisfaction. At least 2 cups.
Heat & serve.
Topping optional cheese, green onions.
 
2# bag of southern hash brown potatoes (cubes) wi to our without the peppers, 1 can cream of chicken soup, one 8oz block of cream cheese and 32 oz of chicken broth (reduced sodium works well), 1 or 2 packets of ranch seasoning, I have done both ways and like 1 packet best. 2 cups cheddar cheese, salt and pepper to taste. Dump it all the the crockpot and cook on high for about 4 hours. Stir occasionally. Recipe calls for bacon but I did coarse chopped ham instead ! Extra cheese and some sour cream to top if you want per bowl!
 
I cook diced onion in a little oil until tender then add diced potatoes and enough chicken broth to cover potatoes. Let it cook until potatoes are somewhat tender ( not mushy) then add salt/ pepper and a can of evaporated milk then simmer to blend flavors. If you like it thicker add a slur of cornstarch/ wzter to thicken broth.
