Use a good quality cheddar cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. Look for a cheese that is sharp and flavorful.
Don't overcook the potatoes. They should be cooked through but still have a little bit of a bite to them.
Add the cheese slowly. This will help to prevent it from curdling.
Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices as desired.
Serve the soup immediately. It is best enjoyed when it is hot and bubbly.
