Recipe Tips

  • You can use any type of potato in this soup, but I recommend using a waxy potato like Yukon gold.
  • If you don't have an immersion blender, be careful when blending the soup in a regular blender. The hot soup can cause the blender to explode if you fill it too full.
  • If you want to make this soup vegan, simply omit the heavy cream or use a non-dairy alternative like coconut cream.
  • You can add other vegetables to this soup, like carrots or celery, if you want to bulk it up even more.
  • Try topping the soup with some croutons or grated Parmesan cheese for added flavor and texture.
