Potato Soup

This potato soup is rich and creamy although it has no added milk or cream. The potatoes puréed with the chicken broth result in a thick and satisfying potato soup, a welcome comfort food on a cold winter day. The grated Parmigiano Reggiano® cheese adds protein and delicate flavor. Don’t forget to sprinkle some Parmigiano Reggiano shavings on the potato soup before serving for the essential final touch. And here’s a tip for the soup maker: Use homemade vegetable or chicken broth or Parmesan Broth for extra flavor.

You can vary this soup by adding chopped leeks with the potatoes, or by using a mixture of sweet and white potatoes. Replace some of the potato with celeriac or parsnip for a slightly sweeter soup your children will love. This potato soup can also be served cold and makes an elegant Vichyssoise.
