You can mash the potatoes or puree half and have a less chunky soup if you like. Plus it thickens soup more. If you like it thicker, add some instant potatoes to your thickness of choice.

My trick to maintaining a smooth and creamy broth without completely breaking down the potatoes and creating a grainy texture is to simply cook the potatoes first, then set them aside while I make the soup base. This is my go-to simple version that I use as a base for multiple possibilities of add-ins. StephieCanCook -

I make this when the weather starts to turn cold.A couple of notes on preparation:••• I like to make this on the first cold days of the year. It's hearty and warming and delicious. ••• If the soup gets too thick while it boils, add a little milk and let it cook in for a minute. If it gets too runny, mix some flour and a small amount of half and half in a separate container, and pour that into the soup instead. I like it thick, but this could easily become gravy by accident.Also, consider the fat content of a meal made with a pint of half and half. You can use milk instead, but the soup will be less creamy and flavorful. You can use whole cream to make it really rich, but this is really too thick. A good compromise is to mix half and half with milk if you wish to decrease fat content while retaining texture.GradysGhost
