I used this recipe as a starting point to try imitating some great potato jalapeno soup I found at a pub in Traverse City, MI. Here's my altered ingredients list: 1 large onion, chopped 1 stalk celery chopped 4 tablespoons butter or margarine 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt (salted to taste) 3 cups milk 4 medium potatoes - peeled, cooked and cubed 1 or 2 fresh jalapeno* peppers (two was a little heavy on the jalapeno) - seeds removed and finely chopped *Be careful with the fresh jalapenos, especially if you have excema; wear gloves.
