Potato Soup
I love potato soup! My mom used to make it when we were kids and I have always made it too.
I recently experimented by eliminating the milk and instead using a package of the kind of gravy mix you buy to make "biscuits and gravy" It's that creamy, peppered gravy. Lord have mercy! I swear, I will never use milk again. Using this gravy is like creating a gourmet potato soup. I use a bit of diced ham and I boil my spuds, onions and ham together in water until my spuds are soft but still a little firm, then I take the potato masher and mash them up, but I leave them kinda chunky. I make the gravy in a separate pan and add it to the potato and water mixure and..........and it's to die for! Anyone else like potato soup also?

Re: Potato Soup
I've never had potato soup before but what you described really sounds fantastic. The only thing I would remove is the onions, me no likey onions.

Re: Potato Soup
Luba and Duke, you are both missing out. I've always had homemade potatoe soup so can't tell you what it might be like in a restraunt or out of a can. But it is one of those cold day soups that makes you just feel good and loved while you're eating it. Yes, love really does come in a bowl.
