Best Buttermilk And Steamed Potato Soup Recipes

POTATO AND BUTTERMILK SOUP

Steps:

• Combine the potatoes, onions, and chicken stock in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Bring to a strong simmer and cook for 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool slightly. Transfer the soup to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Return the soup to the pan. Add the buttermilk, dill, butter, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes over low heat or until heated through. Serve hot.

LOVAGE, POTATO & BUTTERMILK SOUP

Steps:

• Put the onion into a heavy-based saucepan.
• Add the stock and bring to boiling point very slowly so the onion begins to soften a little.
• Meanwhile coarsely chop a small handful (5 or so tablespoons) of lovage.
• Add the potato and herbs to the pan and pour on 1/2 pint buttermilk.
• Increase the heat very slightly and bring the mixture to a bare simmer.
• Stir vigorously all the while as the potato starch will thicken the soup, which may stick to the pan base.
• Half-cover the pan and reduce heat as low as possible once again.
• Cook very gently indeed, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are perfectly tender.
• Whizz the contents of the pan to a smooth puree.
• Season with salt and pepper and with extra lovage if you like.
• Whizz again and thin to taste with a little more stock or buttermilk.
• Reheat gently or chill thoroughly before serving, then garnish with a swirl of buttermilk and a small piece of chopped fresh lovage.

BEST EVER POTATO SOUP

Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until potatoes are tender, 10-15 minutes., Mix flour and milk until smooth; stir into soup.

COLD POTATO-BARLEY BUTTERMILK SOUP

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes and cut into approximately 4-inch dice. Cover with water and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook until the potatoes are about half done, about 10 minutes. Add the green beans and cook until both are tender but not overdone, about 10 minutes longer. Remove from the heat, but do not drain.
• Let the potato-green bean mixture stand, uncovered, until it is at room temperature, then add the remaining ingredients. Serve at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate until chilled, if desired.
• Mid- to late summer is our brief chance to grab what we can of sun, sand, and-soup. Okay, so soup might not be something that springs immediately to mind when you think of summer pleasures, but I find few things more refreshing on a warm summer day than a bowl of cold soup.
• To round out a meal of cold soup, add a substantial salad, a good bread, and if you'd like, some fresh corn on the cob. These cool, flavorful elixirs whet the wilted appetite like nothing else can!
