Absolutely delicious, the first time I made it exactly by the recipe and it was great. Now, I use skim milk instead of half and half, and puree about half of it when it's finished cooking to thicken it up. It's just as good to us.

Incredible soup! My husband is a vegetarian, so I substituted vegetable stock (Wolfgang Puck brand) for the chicken broth and used vegetable bullion cubes. I actually ended up using 1 ½ 32 oz. boxes of the vegetable stock (48 oz. total), which is a bit more than the recipe calls for, and the soup still came out with a great creamy consistency – not too thick and not too thin. Some enhancements I made to the recipe in addition to making it veggie-friendly were to add an extra ¾ C. diced potatoes, 1 can of corn, 3 cloves garlic, some shredded carrot, & substituted a large leek for the onion, which were all great flavor compliments to the potato. I sautéed the celery, shredded carrot, pressed garlic, and the diced leek in a saucepan with some olive oil before adding it to the boiling potato / broth mixture, then followed the recipe from there, adding the canned corn at the end. I served the soup with a nice green salad and a French baguette. What a wonderful meal for a cozy night in with my family. Note: This would be AMAZING with some dungeness crab meat added - YUM!

It's cold & windy today, perfect for a delicous soup! I like carrots in my potato soup so I left out the celery. Used whole milk. Added lots of garlic. Only used 1 can of chicken broth & no bouillon (family doesn't care for salt very much). It's perfect!

Great recipe. Great additions we used were, 1lb.bacon and more potatoes.

This recipe was pretty good, but I found that it wasn't nearly as thick as I'd like. I think next time I won't add as much chicken broth and that should do the trick. I may also add a little more potato, but otherwise it was tasty and a good recipe to start with.

Great hearty meal! I added Soy milk instead, because my wife can't have milk. It turned out Great, didn't notice any difference and added great body to the soup. Also added carrots from the garden. We used 2 cans of chicken stock and 1 box of vegetable stock. We then cooked 2 chicken breasts on the bone in water with salt, pepper, parsley, tarragon, and some lowerys season salt. Boiled on med heat 30-45 mins, let cool and removed from liquid and cooled on plate. I strained out the cooked chicken broth and added broth from cooking potato/veg stock. Into this I added the melted butter and flower. And heated on med. While this heated I removed the skin and bone from chicken breast and set aside and I then shredded the the breast meat. I added the thickened stock into the main pot and added the shredded chicken. I let it on med low heat for 25 more mins. I then let this cool and put in in the fridge for lunch and perhaps supper the next day. It turned out great. I tasted a cup and it would be ready to serve hot or prepare ahead of time and serve later. I nice sour dough loaf or like bread would go well with this meal!

This recipe is great. It tastes like the real, homemade potato soup my Mother used to make. Simple, easy, delicious!

Very good. To make this vegetarian, I used vegetable broth and some Better Than Boullion "No-Chicken Base" (boullion paste that tastes like chicken, with no animal products). Worked great! I also used fat-free half and half to make it lower in fat and calories. Will make again.

This soup turned out wonderful. I used a low sodium broth because I figured with the buillion and salt I could have a little more control over the amount of salt. I read the recipe wrong and thought it said 3 cups chicken broth but I poured in a whole box (4 cups) and then caught my mistake. Either way, by the time the potatoes cooked, there wasn't much broth left. I added the half and half to it and the flour/butter mixture as the recipe stated and it turned out perfectly. I didn't even add anymore broth to it. To finish it off, I did use a potato masher in the soup to help break some of the potatoes up and leave some whole and that worked great. Wonderful recipe and I will make this again.

This soup was wonderful. I will make it again for my family
