Ingredients

1 quart vegetable stock
1 cup water
1 ½ teaspoons lobster base
4 potatoes, cut into bite-size pieces
1 tablespoon butter, or to taste
½ onion, halved and sliced
2 teaspoons dried tarragon
2 teaspoons arrowroot powder
1 cup half-and-half

Steps:

Place vegetable stock, water, and lobster base in a large stockpot; bring to a boil. Stir in potatoes; boil until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain potatoes, reserving stock.
Melt butter in the stockpot over medium heat. Add onions and tarragon; cook and stir until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add arrowroot; stir until thoroughly combined. Pour reserved stock back into the stockpot. Stir in half-and-half and bring bisque to a boil. Return potatoes to the stockpot; lower heat and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes.
