The Ultimate Potato Soup Recipes

THE ULTIMATE POTATO SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Place bacon pieces in a large Dutch Oven or soup pot over medium heat and cook until bacon is crisp and browned.
• Remove bacon pieces and set aside, leaving the fat in the pot.
• Add butter and chopped onion and cook over medium heat until onions are tender (3-5 minutes).
• Add garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
• Sprinkle the flour over the ingredients in the pot and stir until smooth (use whisk if needed).
• Add diced potatoes to the pot along with chicken broth, milk, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and ancho chili powder. Stir well.
• Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork (about 10 minutes).
• Reduce heat to simmer and remove approximately half*** of the soup to a blender (be careful, it will be hot!) and puree until smooth (half is about 5 cups of soup, but just eyeballing the amount will be fine. Alternatively you can use an immersion blender.).
• Return the pureed soup to the pot and add sour cream and reserved bacon pieces, stir well.
• Allow soup to simmer for 15 minutes before serving.
• Top with additional sour cream, bacon, cheddar cheese, or chives. Enjoy!
