We peeled and cut up the remaining homegrown potatoes and had to buy some potatoes from the store to supplement the ones we grew. I think it ended up being 7 or 8 medium sized potatoes that we peeled, cut, and added to the pot along with some homegrown sweet corn that we thawed out. We boiled it in salted water along with a half cup of cut up onions. We cooked for about 20 minutes until the potatoes were softened.

As it was heating, we grated a cup of smoked Gouda cheese into the pot.

Then it was time to get the bowls out and ladle the delicious potato soup into them. We picked some Italian parsley to garnish the soup and added some of our Criolla Sella pepper to the top.
Ready to eat! |
We sat down, thanked the Good Lord for the good food and it was on!

Potato soup is a family favorite and doesn't take long to cook and it disappears very quickly.

After we had eaten it and enjoyed it, we started thinking about things to add next time that will make it even better - things like mushrooms and bacon and accompaniments like cheese toast. We'll try that next time...
