Recipe Tips

  • Any type of potato will work fine for this soup.
  • You can use a regular food processor instead of a stick blender.
  • You may need to add more fluid if the soup is too thick to your liking. On the flip side, a combination of cornstarch and water can be used to thicken the soup.
  • For a slightly chunky soup, simply reduce the amount you blend the soup.
  • Sour cream or Greek yogurt can be used instead of heavy cream. Other creams may also work.
