- Don't overcrowd the pot: When cooking the potatoes, make sure to not overcrowd the pot. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Season the soup well: Be generous with the salt and pepper when seasoning the soup. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as garlic, onion, or thyme.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: When serving the soup, be sure to include your favorite toppings. Some popular options include chopped parsley, shredded cheese, or crumbled bacon.
