Perfect consistency for cream of potato. I tweaked it to make a cream of potato and broccoli. If that was your plan, too, keep in mind creaming and adding broccoli makes it bland, but Worcestershire sauce , mustard powder, and a LOT of salt (4 tbsp. in a 6 serving recipe) relieves that. Great recipe, very easy! I'll use it again.

Made as is and it was good. Cheap and easy. It need lots of salt and pepper and it was good served with crackers.

I boiled the potatoes and onions in vegetable broth, added a bit of celery salt and added sauteed red bell peppers and swiss cheese at the end. Yum!

nice and simple pleasures are what makes cooking supper the best weekend activity. this great base could take many variations dependent on the cook's tastes. my version was with tobasco sauce & marjoram added to the base and broth while simmering. also i topped the soup with fresh red peppers, hot quality pepperoni and grated marble cheese. since i aim for a basic attempt at a recipe, i also used a potato masher to puree the mixture, preserving a great texture.

Oooh, I love potato soup and this was so easy to make. I made mine with half idaho potato and half gold yukon which makes the texture oh so good. It smelled great cooking, and tasted wonderful on day one and two. This recipe is also a good base for additions such as ham, cheese, etc. Thanks again!

Good Soup! The family loved it, but after I added the puree to the pot, the flour began to form balls, so I re blended the entire soup, and it turned out delicious. I also added Maggi Chicken Bouilon Cubes and left some unmashed stewed potato cubes on the side for an even heartier, thicker soup.

This soup made my house smell wonderful. It was the perfect dinner for a cold day. More importantly my husband says it is a keeper! I added 1/2 cup cream for every 2 cups of milk. I also added seasoning salt and garlic salt as well as table salt.

This recipe was delicious and cheap. I found myself adding ALOT of salt though to kick up the taste. Next time I may use some kind of garlic salt or season salt instead of just table salt. I also substituted 1/2 cup of heavy cream for some of the milk so it would be richer. I added some shredded cheddar to my bowl too and it was great!!!!!!!!!! This recipe has alot of potential!

Great basic recipe. I however added a lot of extra spices such as seasoning salt. Also I omitted the parsley, i honestly hate that stuff ha, instead I used another seasoning which is made up of ground orageno, parsley, onions, thyme, etc. Really GOOD!!!! Everybody asked for seconds, and even licked their bowl.

This is a wonderful, creamy soup, but like another reviewer noted, there is too much liquid when making a smaller recipe. I decided to keep the extra liquid and made the white sauce thicker, using three tablespoons each of butter and flour to two cups of milk. I also cooked the onions and potatoes in vegetable stock instead of water and stirred in about 1 teaspoon of ground sage (It brought out the onion flavor.) with the salt and pepper.

Lovely soup but beware - it doesn't scale down the 3 cups of juice so if you make less, reduce the amount of liquid you use as it was a little thin.

Tasted very well and was easy to make, used 3 onions instead of using 5 to make 10 portions, perhaps wish id of used ther full 5 now but definatly workth making again. plenty of pepper though and i was happy.

I added condensed vegetable cubes and stripes of savoy cabbage after puring everything, it turned out so delicious !!

This is a great soup. The preparation time took a lot longer, although that might be because I'm a newbie to soups. It took about an hour just to chop everything and then another couple hours to do all the purreeing, roux, and simmering. Definitely leave enough time for interruptions or a few mistakes like I did. I was not sure what to do with the 3 cups of water so I repureed everything again with the 3 c. water. I like that the parsley mitigates the onion. I also liked that it uses some of its own stock. I look forward to savoring this yummy soup over the next few days.

best yet!

excellent recipe, easy to make and a pleasure to enjoy.

This is a really good recipe. I didn't put all of the potato and onion mixture in the blender because my family likes pieces of potato in their soup.
