Potato Soup Recipe: My Grandmother Potato Sup recipe makes a simple, comforting, and traditional soup. Only 5 ingredients required and no heavy cream

Soup is my favorite meal. This is the soup I grew to love the most, just like our favorite vegetable soup or chicken and dumplings. Before the advent of potato soups with bacon, cheese, and onions, my Grandmother made potato soup simply with potatoes, milk, butter, and salt and pepper. If we knew my Grandmother made this soup for dinner, our family would love to have it. It’s so easy to grasp why you should try it!

Ingredients

2 pounds (about 6 medium) Russet potatoes scrubbed, peeled, and chopped
water
3 cups whole milk
4 tablespoons butter
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Cover potatoes with water in a large soup pot.

Cook over medium heat until fork tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and drain.

Add milk and butter to the potatoes. Place back on medium heat and allow milk to bubble slightly around the edges of the soup pot, about 5 to 10 minutes.

Remove from heat and ladle into soup bowls.

Serve with salt and pepper to taste.
