NEW ENGLAND POTATO SOUP

While on our honeymoon in New England, my husband and I walked into an old country store and were immediately swept off our feet by the aroma of soup that was cooking. We each ordered a bowl and found it to be absolutely delicious! We tried to persuade the cook to give us the recipe, but she said it was a secret. Upon returning home, I experimented until I came up with this recipe, which is very close.

Thanks to Priscilla's New England Potato Soup for the starter recipe that I tweaked. Use your imagination! Throw in what you have available! Not sure about spices, read the label on the container. If it's for soup, try it! You can easily make this vegetarian by leaving out animal-based stock and the ham. Enjoy - very delicious!

NEW ENGLAND BAKED POTATO SOUP



New England Baked Potato Soup image

I have made this for many whom have given it the title. This takes a bit of effort but is well worth it. Please note: for those who do not wish to use bacon, substitute 1/4 cup melted butter for the bacon grease and continue with the recipe.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 onion, diced
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 c all purpose flour
3 can(s) (14.5 ounce) chicken broth
5 potatoes, baked, peeled and diced
2 c half and half
1 c sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1 c sour cream
salt & pepper to taste
GARNISHES:
SLICED BACON, COOKED AND CRUMBLED/ CHIVES/ SOUR CREAM/ SHREDDED CHEDDAR CHEESE/ HAM

Steps:

  • 1. In a Dutch oven cook bacon until crisp; remove and crumble; set aside.
  • 2. If you have just cooked the bacon then cook the onions on medium-low heat in the bacon drippings until tender. If you are using leftover bacon or are omitting the bacon altogether then add about 2 tablespoons olive oil to the Dutch oven and cook the onion on medium-low heat until tender.
  • 3. Once tender stir in flour and cook for one minute, stirring constantly.
  • 4. Gradually add chicken broth; cook, stirring constantly until thickened and bubbly.
  • 5. Put in the diced potatoes and half & half. If you like your soup very chunky you can leave it as is. If you like a slightly smoother soup you can use an immersion blender to blend it.
  • 6. Continue to cook on medium-low heat for 10 minutes and stir in the cheese and sour cream.
  • 7. Garnish with the bacon, chives, additional cheese, and sour cream if you'd like.
