POTATO CHOWDER SOUP II
After trying the most wonderful potato soup at a local market I tried to come home and duplicate it. It didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted but I found my version better. I got the name Potato Chowder soup because when my husband tried it he thought it tasted like a chowder. Also a can of corn could be added as a quick variation. Very tasty and warms the soul on a dreary damp day.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the classic choice for potato soup, as they break down easily and create a smooth, creamy texture. However, you can also use Yukon Gold or red potatoes, which will hold their shape better and give the soup a slightly chunkier texture.
- Don't be afraid to add aromatics: To build flavor in your potato soup, start by sautéing some onions, celery, and carrots. You can also add garlic, leeks, or shallots for even more flavor.
- Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of your soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor. You can also make your own broth using chicken bones, vegetables, and herbs.
- Season to taste: Potato soup is a versatile dish that can be seasoned to your liking. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a splash of cream or milk for a richer flavor.
- Garnish with your favorites: Once your potato soup is cooked, you can garnish it with a variety of toppings. Some popular options include chives, sour cream, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheese.
Conclusion:
Potato soup is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
