Time 40m

Yield About 9 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 pounds blue potatoes, peeled and quartered
6 cups good chicken or vegetable stock
1 bay leaf
1 cup milk or light cream
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 8 minutes. Add the potatoes, stock and bay leaf and heat to boiling over medium-high heat. Cover and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes. Remove the bay leaf.
  • In batches, carefully purée the mixture in a blender or food processor. (Do not overblend or potatoes will get gluey.) Place in a clean saucepan and stir in the milk or cream. Season with nutmeg, pepper and salt.

I'm not sure about this recipe. Blue potatoes? In soup? It sounds a bit odd. But I'm always willing to try new things, so I might give it a shot.

I'm not a huge fan of blue potatoes, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I'm glad I did! The soup was creamy and flavorful, and the blue potatoes added a nice pop of color.

Overall, I thought the soup was okay. The flavor was good, but the texture was a bit grainy. I think I would have preferred it if the potatoes were blended until smooth.

I followed the recipe exactly but my soup turned out too thin. I think I might have added too much broth.

The soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper and it improved a lot.
