My mom is a great cook. I just want you to know and she’s 84 years of age. I fix the soup today. I know this is an old video and you might not get it however I fix this potato soup today and my mom said that it was the best soup she has ever eaten. Thank you so much.
I just wanted to say. I am a 17 year old living with family, dont know how to cook at all. And I saw your video for the first time and made potato soup for family and they loved it sooo much!!!! THANK YOUUUU!!!!
I looked up potato soup and selected this one. I think it's the best potato soup I've ever had in my life! I did lighten it up because I'm on weight watchers and was amazed how rich it still was.
I did the same, mainly because I was using up things I had on hand. Turkey bacon worked (there was not really any fat left in the pan, but the recipe came out great anyway), I only had half a cup of heavy cream, and my sour cream was made from cashew milk. Delicious!
I'm 56 years old and you have taught me to make many recipes. I like you and your style of cooking very much. Thank you Ms. Sugur Spun Run for sharing.
When I was a teenager about 45 years ago ,, I had a friend invite me to dinner ,,, his Mom made the most incredible potato soup That I have ever had ...and even back then I was a soup hound..... This is pretty much what I remember,, taste is top shelf ...only difference is using bacon here ,, she used diced ham .. either way AWESOME !! ...THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR CRAFT ...
This is the best potato soup I’ve ever had! My husband keeps on asking me to please remake it so I always come back to your video ❤️ thank you so much for sharing this delicious recipe with us!
I make this soup, often, during colder weather. I just wanted to share, that since I don't have an immersion or ordinary blender, I grate half the potatoes, at the beginning. By the time the soup is ready to serve, they've broken down all the way 💝💖 Thanks for the tried-and-true recipes, Sam! It's nice to know I can ALWAYS count on you, when I need a last-minute recipe. There's NEVER any need to "Test" yours. They're always fantastic!! Many blessings to you and the family 💝
Girl I made this for my family tonight for dinner OH My Word !!!! they went nuts. From age of 14 - 59 they all couldnot stop talking about how good the soup was. Thank u so much anything all of my crowd will all eat with no complains is one for the record books
Instead of pureeing half of the soup...all I do is add a handful or two of dry potato flakes to the soup at the end. It really adds a nice body/thickness to the soup without losing half your solid taters. Also, if you need some extra flavor in your soup just keep some Better Than Bouillon on hand & add a spoonful or two. That stuff is amazing.
Making this as soon as the bacon thaws. I'm definitely going to go with your suggestion of the dry potato flakes instead of pureeing some of the potato chunks. And some cheddar cheese of course, always cheese on everything :)
I just used a potato masher for the part we’re you have to purée half of your soup and it turned out great I’ve made this recipe 3 times and made a batch for my grandparents and later today I will be making it again!!!
Just made it! I halved the recipe for me and my friend and it was so good and super easy to make. I skipped the step where you blend, the potatoes were so soft I just squised some of the potato cubes until it was where I wanted and stirred it all in. It was very thick and filling. I ate it with a rustic bread loaf.
21 and wanting to learn how to make something that doesn't come in a box. My roommate and i absolutely ADORE this soup. It's simple enough for me as a beginner and I've quickly learned what i can use to substitute on my college budget while still being edible.
Substitues: You can replace half the potatoes for mashed potato mix- it doesn't taste as good but it definitely still works. You can also use dried minced onion that's in the spice isle if you're broke like me. You also don't have to use a whole onion, I personally only use 1/4 onion. You can also use curry powder instead of the chili powder to get a similar affect. (I use chili powder on half the things I cook now it's so good lol)
Just made your soup and for someone who has never liked potato soup I was blown away. It was delicious. I made it for my son for his birthday and since I made it I had to try it. Excellent. Absolutely sublime in flavor. Thank you for making a fan of me. Can't wait to try your other recipes.😁
I’ve been making this potato soup recipe for a few years now, and every time I make it I want to lick the bowl when I’m done this is SO GOOD. The only potato soup recipe I’ll ever make!
Went to google, searched Potato Soup recipe....followed recipe to the T......started eating, impressed! Came to youtube to see other recipes, shocked to see yours was the exact same recipe......then realized I got my recipe from your site.... I garnished with cubed sized everything bagel fried in lard and washed it all down with 3 Killians Irish Red........and now I'd love a nap. Thank you for this feel good food.
Good Job. The good thing about that recipe is you can make it into any kind of chowder in a pinch just by adding ingredients like fresh corn for corn chowder, clams for clam chowder, fish for fish chowder, shredded carrot and cabbage for cabbage chowder. What ever you want, use your imagination. At a friends house, I once had it with hard boiled eggs, fresh diced onion and cheese grated on the top. It was delicious. One of my moms secrets was adding Rontini pasta in it if there wasn't enough potatoes left in the pot after she just took a potato masher to it instead of using a blender. Yes great job.
@@SugarSpunRun Hello Sugar, The eggs are interesting as someone wouldn't expect it. The folks that served it to me were full blooded Lithuanian and they told me it was very common to be served that way. I do the same thing and put crumbled bacon on top. Who can resist that. It may sound strange, but I like to put a few poached eggs on top of my potato soup sometimes along with crumbled bacon, or a few slices of deli boiled or smoked ham chopped up to go on top too. I suppose potato soup gets served a million different ways depending on where your from. I don't know if it's a Italian thing or not. My mom was from Italy and would put a few poached eggs on top when serving a bowl of homemade chicken noodle soup along with some real grated Parmesan, Romano, or Asiago cheese. Oh, don't forget the chili pepper flakes too, you know, the kind that goes on pizza. Now that's strange but delicious. Once someone tries it, their hooked, especially using fresh eggs and 10 minute homemade egg noodles. I just thought of something funny. My moms family raised chickens, maybe that was a way to use up some of the eggs LOL. The funny part is my moms story when she was a little girl, a big old mean rooster chased her and had her trapped in wooden rain barrel for a few hours. Other than that, much appreciation for sharing your recipes and all you do. I think sharing food idea's with one another is a celebration so thanks again.
@@gamehunter3985i was chased by a tom turkey once when i was trying to carry my groceries in from the car. itwas scary! i had to run back into the car and hide til he and his harem moved along! ha ha ha!
Made this for dinner tonight. Added 1 ½ C of cheddar cheese with sour cream and bacon and added ¼ C cheese on each bowl before serving. Absolutely fantastic! Thank you!
I rarely ever cook, but I had to try this recipe! Ugh it's sooo good! It's simmering now. I added broccoli bits and strips of carrots to it as well! I cant wait to dig in and share with the family!
Made this tonight and it was a success!!! Few things I did differently: 1)didn’t use ancho chili, just regular chili powder 2)didn’t use any sour cream 3)used russet potatoes 4)instead of using the heavy cream in the beginning, I saved it for later whenever I blended some potatoes to thicken the soup. Just to cool down the mix so my blender wouldn’t explode 😂 I didn’t use a whole lot of the potatoes, maybe like a cup and a half. Blended it with some of the cooked bacon & some green onions for added flavor. It was perfect!
Quick, easy and VERY tasty!!!! I do not like to cook and I am not good at cooking but this recipe yielded perfection. Try it, it will not disappoint!!!
My mom watched a couple videos and thought yours was the one she wanted. She made it and said she watched the video once and it was so simple to make so she tried it, and she thought it was great! So I had to try it and she was not lying! It WAS great!!! Thanks for posting!
3:15 I actual had to research this Ancho chilli powder/seasoning. Ancho chile powder is just one specific chile, dried poblanos, that have been ground up. It is slightly spicier than regular chili powder. Appreciate the tips!!!❤
I made the soup. I halved everything since it was just 2 of us. It was delicious. I just added bacon to the top and I added ham from my deli for the soup. So good. Thanks!
My 15 year old son made this today. With homemade bread too. Double treat!! Thank you for a great video /recipe. It tasted and smelled so gooood. He is so proud of himself and his mom and i too. You never what could take off with something you do. Posting a video Much thanks.
Love hearing a sin learning to cook! A valuable lesson from my Mom, all 4 boys were also to cook AND clean. Their wives are grateful. I loved teaching cooking to kids.
This is so good. I added a little garlic powder, onion powder, dried mustard, and red chili flake just because we like a touch of heat on pretty much anything but that's it. Will definitely be my go to potato soup recipe!
It was exquisite!!!! I made it today... didn't have ancho chilli powder so I replaced it with regular chilli powder.... Blending 1/2 if the soup made it so creamy.... don't skip this step!!! My son thought it was from a restaurant lol
I just wanted to thank you for the recipe. I've had Covid for a week now. I haven't been able to eat and barley drink. I was having extremely bad stomach pains from my body eating it's self. I saw this recipe and figured why not. It's easy to make and easy to eat. In fact I've eaten it two days in a row now. I know this sounds weird but, this recipe kinda saved me from going to the hospital and possibly my life. Thank you again.
It’s simmering now and my house smells divine! I can’t stop sticking a spoon in there to try it. My mouth is watering! Thank you for graciously taking the time to create this video. This is my first time to make this soup and your video with instructions was so easy to follow. Tremendously grateful! ❤️
I made this today for my daughter, mom, and grandma and they loved it! Pureeing half and the other tips made it deliciously creamy, thank you! Can't wait to try it again with ancho, which I couldn't find at Kroger.
Thank you! I made your recipe twice now. Love it. However, I added a few extra things to make it a little more hearty (carrots and celery), and added two extra cups of vegetable stock, and a little extra flower and cream as thickener(s). Amazing 😍.
Potato soup has always been a nostalgic meal for me, I get so excited every winter when it gets colder because thats when we break out the homemade chili, chicken noodle soup, and of course, potato soup, it’s my favorite food, especially my mom’s recipe, I don’t think anything can ever beat it for me!!
My first time attempting to make homemade potato soup and it turned out SO good! Thank you for this recipe! My favorite thing is that it's super simple.
I've been making this potatoe soup ever since I tried making it, and I must say it's the best I've ever had, I'll definitely keep this recipe, thank you Sam
This is a great recipe, thank you!! The only difference that I did was a steamed 3 to 4 potatoes blend in a Vitamix with broth and add instead of blending the soup. My family prefers to have more chunks of potatoes but the puree just thickens it up. 😊
made this for my family today because i felt like making something different let me just say it was delicious so rich,creamy and flavorful i’m definitely going to make this again 🤤✨❤️
This is a very good recipe! I did make a few changes. 1. On top of the bacon I cooked up 1 lbs. of Kielbasa to add to the soup. 2. I caramelized my onions, low/medium low heat for about 30 minutes. 3. I finely minced 1 carrot and 2 celery, added them in with the garlic. 4. I used 4 large garlic cloves. 5. used a potato masher and mashed about 80% of the potatoes. 6. I had no ancho chili powder, so I used cayenne pepper powder instead. In the end this soup was a HUGE HIT! (I did add the extra cheddar cheese, bacon, sour cream and chives on top for presentation) But both my brother and Sister-in-law said THIS recipe is a keeper!
I love this soup. It always tastes good. I add a little smoked paprika and use a potato masher to get the consistency I like. I found this recipe like 2 years ago, and I still come back to it. Edit in case anyone sees this: I do not have ancho chili powder. I use regular chili powder. The smoked paprika might not be great with ancho chili powder, I'm not sure
I made this soup yesterday. first time I make potato soup. With so many videos out there decided to go with yours and all I can say is OMG this potato soup is sooo amazing, delicious and so yummyyyyy , you'd think it's bought from a restaurant. Thank you for posting. I'll be making it over and over and over again.
You can also head over the website and print them to save for later, or you can bookmark the video, whichever is easier for you. 😊 I’m glad you enjoy the videos.
Thanks, Great recipe. I. Substituted 1 cup of broth for canned clam juice (2 cans 6.5oz)and made clam chowder. Added clams during the simmer time. Placed in bowl and topped off with crisp bacon, yellow cheese, fresh green onion. The best I ever made!
Wow, wow, wow, this is some amazing soup. I made it for the arrival of the polar vortex of 2022 and it didn't disappoint. I made this recipe as directed but I added a touch more cream and I did add the ancho chili powder which was amazing and I also added a teaspoon of smoked paprika (one of my favorite spices for soup) It was just over the top. I made home made crusty bread ( we love to dip)and this was a total hit with my boys. This will definitely be in my soup rotation. Thanks for sharing.
DELICIOUS! I snuck in a bag of fresh baby spinach leaves as a topper so my picky kids get in their daily veggies. They didn't complain probably because the spinach wilted in the heat of the soup so much so that it was incognito
Great recipe! Just cooked for my wife and daughter, and just the smell the house was swimming in was enough to have them waiting at the table. Great job and thank you!
one of the only soups I love making, ive made it 4 times now for my family. Its a special plate in my house XD everyone should def try it. We do put more salt than the recommended for the soup, and a looot more ancho chilly powder as well. It is just YUMMYY!!
Just made this and it was absolutely delicious. The instructions were super clear. I mashed the potatoes a bit with a masher and it worked really well! Thank you!!
I just made this and although I didn’t have any ancho chili, I loved it. This is so delicious. I will be making this one again. Thank you for sharing this.
@@SugarSpunRun I totally agree! I will make it without using the bacon, but I think if I did extra butter and onion in the base, it should still be really good. I'm going to try! And YES the immersion blender is the best!
You don't need an immersion blender. Just remove however many potatoes you want, and mash with a fork, or a manual potato masher. Also, hold off on the salt, and adjust at the end. P.S. add a stalk of diced celery, and a diced carrot when you add the onions for more flavor.
@@jokingrudolf76, I have one, and it's great. But, there are a lot of new cooks, who feel they can't make a recipe because they don't have the equipment. Was simply suggesting alternate options.
Just made this soup without the bacon and subbed veg broth and it's awesome. Just need a neutral oil or extra butter in the place of bacon grease. It tasted amazing
I made this last year for Christmas Eve and my whole family loved it, and I’ll do it today for Christmas Eve too, thanks for this amazing recipe!! :D Hope everyone has amazing holidays, take care everyone!!
@@SugarSpunRun Hello!! it’s my third time making this soup!! it has become a tradition now!! everyone loves this recipe so much! Happy Holidays and thank you so much for this amazing recipe! ❤
I made this recipe Tuesday with my husband, today is Saturday and we are making again lol Is so delicious and the result is incredible, thank you for the recipe 😋
I’ve been making this for a couple of years now. My Hubby LOVES it! I’ve even doubled it because it heats up beautifully. Going to try it in your bread bowls next. Thanks for sharing your recipe’s.😊😋
This recipe is wonderful! Thank you for sharing! I mixed it with a family recipe of ours and added hotdogs to ours! It's sooooo good and my kids love it too!
I just found your potato soup recipe and I made it this morning and oh my gosh is it ever delicious! I told my granddaughter and her boyfriend about it and they came and they took half of it home with them. They like it so well thank you for sharing it.

I just made this warm savory delicious potato soup. I followed the directions to the t. Perfect soup and when you add cheese and sour cream, taste like baked potato soup. thank you so much and will look at other recipes. Thanks so much.
I just made your potato soup recipe. Served with a big spoon of sour cream on top and mild cheddar cheese. Delicious. I am now a subscriber. Best Wishes. Grandpa Jones. 😃
So I have made my potato soup for my family for years. I wanted something new. With 3 teens and 3 under 10 years I was wondering if i would find anything they all like the same. I came across your recipe and thought why not. I changed a few things that I knew that my family would not like but pretty much followed almost exactly. I made a triple batch. they ALL loved it. The Leftovers didn't stay. my daughter came by and had some and now she's dying for your recipe. Thank you for sharing.
Wow! Absolutely amazing. Totally fell in love with this. The soup recipe is pretty good too. Lol. I use your recipes because you speak clearly and are easy to understand. The ingredients are listed in the description and it seems you make all the stuff I find yummy. Thanks for the help my family is beginning to think I'm a culinary genius. Can I be your number one fan?
I have been cooking potato soup for about 6 yrs and thought I might give this a try. I find that the garlic is a little over the top. I like garlic but this recipe has way too much. Seems like the more it simmered the stronger the garlic smelled . I might recommend not using it , perhaps adding as it's served. The texture is great but I'm going to dispose of this batch and try again without.
My mom is a great cook. I just want you to know and she’s 84 years of age. I fix the soup today. I know this is an old video and you might not get it however I fix this potato soup today and my mom said that it was the best soup she has ever eaten. Thank you so much.
I just wanted to say. I am a 17 year old living with family, dont know how to cook at all. And I saw your video for the first time and made potato soup for family and they loved it sooo much!!!! THANK YOUUUU!!!!
I am so glad everyone enjoyed it so much. :)
Anything made with bacon, garlic and butter has got to be GOOD!!!
Agreed! I hope you love it. 😊😊
Unless you can’t eat pork and don’t have beef, turkey, or chicken bacon
I absolutely agree with you !!
I made this tonight and it was wonderful! My grocery store doesn’t carry the ancho, but I substituted with ground jalapeño pepper and was amazing!!
It’s so good I’ve made it like 3 times now
Pro tip: if you temper the sour cream by stirring in a spoonful of the soup before adding the sour cream it won’t break up in the soup.
Great idea! :)
Great tip! Thanks
Yes or use Creme fresh

That is so awesome! I’m glad everyone enjoyed it! 😊😊
Love hearing a sin learning to cook! A valuable lesson from my Mom, all 4 boys were also to cook AND clean. Their wives are grateful. I loved teaching cooking to kids.
This is so good. I added a little garlic powder, onion powder, dried mustard, and red chili flake just because we like a touch of heat on pretty much anything but that's it. Will definitely be my go to potato soup recipe!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
potato soup is yummy,like,share
It was exquisite!!!! I made it today... didn't have ancho chilli powder so I replaced it with regular chilli powder.... Blending 1/2 if the soup made it so creamy.... don't skip this step!!! My son thought it was from a restaurant lol
I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! ☺️
@@SugarSpunRun I tried with ancho chili and it was the bomb!!!
I just wanted to thank you for the recipe. I've had Covid for a week now. I haven't been able to eat and barley drink. I was having extremely bad stomach pains from my body eating it's self. I saw this recipe and figured why not. It's easy to make and easy to eat. In fact I've eaten it two days in a row now. I know this sounds weird but, this recipe kinda saved me from going to the hospital and possibly my life. Thank you again.
I hope you get better soon! I’m so glad it helped. 😊😊
Once I'm better I really want to try the Chantilly cake. Have a great day.
It’s simmering now and my house smells divine! I can’t stop sticking a spoon in there to try it. My mouth is watering! Thank you for graciously taking the time to create this video. This is my first time to make this soup and your video with instructions was so easy to follow. Tremendously grateful! ❤️
Thank you so much! I hope you love it! 😊😊
Did you boil the potatoes before hand?
No need to here. 😊
Thank you!!!!
Add garlic bread and it's over 😋
I just made the soup, and it is the BEST potato bacon soup I've ever had! Thank you so much!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for leaving a comment. :)
This is a tried and true recipe. Only one I use. Have made it so many times
I'm so glad you enjoy it so much! :)
I made this today for my daughter, mom, and grandma and they loved it! Pureeing half and the other tips made it deliciously creamy, thank you! Can't wait to try it again with ancho, which I couldn't find at Kroger.
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! 😊😊
Looks great! Could use for clam chowder base, broccoli cauliflower or even asparagus soup. This is a keeper!
Thank you! :)
Made this today!!! My kids loved it and said it tasted like olive garden soup. 🤤 Amazing, thanks for the recipe!!!
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! 😊😊
Your kids have terrible taste buds.
Olive garden's "zuppa toscana" uses spicy sausage and kale...
@@denniscrider3776 who said it was zuppa toscana?
Thank you! I made your recipe twice now. Love it. However, I added a few extra things to make it a little more hearty (carrots and celery), and added two extra cups of vegetable stock, and a little extra flower and cream as thickener(s). Amazing 😍.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
Potato soup has always been a nostalgic meal for me, I get so excited every winter when it gets colder because thats when we break out the homemade chili, chicken noodle soup, and of course, potato soup, it’s my favorite food, especially my mom’s recipe, I don’t think anything can ever beat it for me!!
Yes! Soup is definitely a comforting meal ❤
@@SugarSpunRun I 100% agree, very delicious! 💕
This is so incredibly delicious. I didn’t have the smoked chili flavor so I added applewood smoked cheddar cheese and it turned out sooo good!!! 😋
Sounds great! I'm so happy you liked it 😊
@@SugarSpunRun my husband said you can taste the love in it ☺️
That's a great idea.
My first time attempting to make homemade potato soup and it turned out SO good! Thank you for this recipe! My favorite thing is that it's super simple.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
This is one of the best potato soup recipes I’ve ever had! My family loves it!
I'm so glad everyone enjoys it so much! :)
I've been making this potatoe soup ever since I tried making it, and I must say it's the best I've ever had, I'll definitely keep this recipe, thank you Sam
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoy it so much! :)
This is a great recipe, thank you!! The only difference that I did was a steamed 3 to 4 potatoes blend in a Vitamix with broth and add instead of blending the soup. My family prefers to have more chunks of potatoes but the puree just thickens it up. 😊
Been making potato soup for years tried your recipe! It’s perfect! I don’t make it any different anymore!
I'm so glad you've enjoyed it so much! 😊
made this for my family today because i felt like making something different let me just say it was delicious so rich,creamy and flavorful i’m definitely going to make this again 🤤✨❤️
I am so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
This is a very good recipe! I did make a few changes.
1. On top of the bacon I cooked up 1 lbs. of Kielbasa to add to the soup.
2. I caramelized my onions, low/medium low heat for about 30 minutes.
3. I finely minced 1 carrot and 2 celery, added them in with the garlic.
4. I used 4 large garlic cloves.
5. used a potato masher and mashed about 80% of the potatoes.
6. I had no ancho chili powder, so I used cayenne pepper powder instead.
In the end this soup was a HUGE HIT! (I did add the extra cheddar cheese, bacon, sour cream and chives on top for presentation) But both my brother and Sister-in-law said THIS recipe is a keeper!
I love this soup. It always tastes good. I add a little smoked paprika and use a potato masher to get the consistency I like. I found this recipe like 2 years ago, and I still come back to it.
Edit in case anyone sees this: I do not have ancho chili powder. I use regular chili powder. The smoked paprika might not be great with ancho chili powder, I'm not sure
I'm so glad you've enjoyed it so much! :)
I made this soup yesterday. first time I make potato soup. With so many videos out there decided to go with yours and all I can say is OMG this potato soup is sooo amazing, delicious and so yummyyyyy , you'd think it's bought from a restaurant. Thank you for posting. I'll be making it over and over and over again.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I just made mine in a slow cooker and it came out really delicious. I put bok Choy chickpeas rosemary and cheddar cheese . Thanks for the video.
I am so glad everyone enjoyed the soup!!! 😊😊😊
Love a man that can cook!!!
LOVE THAT YOU PUT YOUR YUMMY DELICIOUS RECIPES AND DIRECTIONS UNDERNEATH SO WE CAN HAVE THEM FOR LATER THANK YOU SO MUCH
You can also head over the website and print them to save for later, or you can bookmark the video, whichever is easier for you. 😊 I’m glad you enjoy the videos.
Just made a hugeee pot! Doubled the recipe and my whole family ate it all up:) thank you so much!!💗💗
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! 😊
Thanks, Great recipe. I. Substituted 1 cup of broth for canned clam juice (2 cans 6.5oz)and made clam chowder. Added clams during the simmer time. Placed in bowl and topped off with crisp bacon, yellow cheese, fresh green onion. The best I ever made!
Wow, wow, wow, this is some amazing soup. I made it for the arrival of the polar vortex of 2022 and it didn't disappoint. I made this recipe as directed but I added a touch more cream and I did add the ancho chili powder which was amazing and I also added a teaspoon of smoked paprika (one of my favorite spices for soup) It was just over the top. I made home made crusty bread ( we love to dip)and this was a total hit with my boys. This will definitely be in my soup rotation. Thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I made a vegetarian version of this using vegetable broth, and it was crazy how good it came out! Thank you😌✨
I am so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
DELICIOUS! I snuck in a bag of fresh baby spinach leaves as a topper so my picky kids get in their daily veggies. They didn't complain probably because the spinach wilted in the heat of the soup so much so that it was incognito
Ooo that’s an interesting addition, I’ll have to try it. It sounds really good. 😊
This is my first time ever making potato soup and it came out amazing! Thank you so much!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😊
Lov your recipe. It turned out great. Thanka
My pleasure 😊
Great recipe! Just cooked for my wife and daughter, and just the smell the house was swimming in was enough to have them waiting at the table. Great job and thank you!
You're welcome! I'm glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
I made this today ! It was DELICIOUS !! (I didn't have ancho chili powder so i used paprika instead.) Thank you for the recipe ! 😘😋
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 😊
one of the only soups I love making, ive made it 4 times now for my family. Its a special plate in my house XD everyone should def try it. We do put more salt than the recommended for the soup, and a looot more ancho chilly powder as well. It is just YUMMYY!!
I’m so glad everyone enjoys it so much! I LOVVVEEE the ancho chili powder so adding more sounds like a great idea to me. 😊😊
I'm going to be making it to day. Friday and very Cold out. My son Love ❤️ this soup. Thanks
The perfect soup for cold weather. I’m glad everyone enjoys it. 😊
Between this recipe and your chili recipe.......I am a HERO at my house! Thank you.
I'm so glad everyone enjoys everything so much! :)
@@SugarSpunRun
No problem. Keep those recipes coming. Maybe a curry recipe is in our future???
Just made this and it was absolutely delicious. The instructions were super clear. I mashed the potatoes a bit with a masher and it worked really well! Thank you!!
You’re so welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊
I just made this and although I didn’t have any ancho chili, I loved it. This is so delicious. I will be making this one again. Thank you for sharing this.
You're welcome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
I made this recipe several weeks ago and boy was it a huge hit with my family!:)
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it! 😊
That looks delicious! I've never made potato soup from scratch, but you make it look so doable in this video. Thanks for sharing. YUMMY!
It is soooooo much better when it’s homemade! 😊
@@SugarSpunRun I totally agree! I will make it without using the bacon, but I think if I did extra butter and onion in the base, it should still be really good. I'm going to try! And YES the immersion blender is the best!
You don't need an immersion blender. Just remove however many potatoes you want, and mash with a fork, or a manual potato masher. Also, hold off on the salt, and adjust at the end. P.S. add a stalk of diced celery, and a diced carrot when you add the onions for more flavor.
Perhaps you should start your own channel. I think she did great.
@@MattGrimmett was going to suggest the same! lol
I love my immersion blender-really helps!
@@jokingrudolf76, I have one, and it's great. But, there are a lot of new cooks, who feel they can't make a recipe because they don't have the equipment. Was simply suggesting alternate options.
@@MattGrimmett , you're a jerk. The internet doesn't need anymore people like you posting your venom.
This is the first soup I’ve cooked that my 5 year old liked, she said it was one of the best things she ever tasted. Thank you for sharing!!!❤
You're welcome! I'm glad everyone was able to enjoy it! :)
Just made this soup without the bacon and subbed veg broth and it's awesome.
Just need a neutral oil or extra butter in the place of bacon grease. It tasted amazing
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
I made this last year for Christmas Eve and my whole family loved it, and I’ll do it today for Christmas Eve too, thanks for this amazing recipe!! :D Hope everyone has amazing holidays, take care everyone!!
I hope everyone loves it! Merry Christmas! ❤️
Jim, how did they like it this years Christmas?
@@SugarSpunRun Hello!! it’s my third time making this soup!! it has become a tradition now!! everyone loves this recipe so much! Happy Holidays and thank you so much for this amazing recipe! ❤
@@jonburrows2684 it’s been almost a year but my whole family loves it, it’s gonna be my third time making this soup for Christmas this year!
@@jeyeuekdjfjd well how about making a few extra bowls this year for yours truly?
Im currently cooking this recipe! And the house smells banging!!! Thank you!
Same!
I hope you loved it! :)
@@SugarSpunRun we added some Dano’s for seasoning and OMG! Keeper for sure. Thank you!
If you have the same amount of bacon to add back that you took out, points for self control.
😂😂 I have to cook extra because I know my husband will be stealing it
Ah bacon!!!! With a bacon joke!! Mmmmmm lolll
LOL! Oh no you din't!
Spoken like a true realist
MVP comment right here lol and I'm not worthy 🤣
I made this recipe Tuesday with my husband, today is Saturday and we are making again lol
Is so delicious and the result is incredible, thank you for the recipe 😋
You’re welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed it so much!
I made this a few days ago. We’ve tried a few recipes over the years.
This is the best one we’ve ever tried. It’s a keeper for sure.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I followed your method and my soup was on par with the potato soup from Saltgrass Steakhouse! AND....making it again today! Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful! I'm so happy you like it 😊
I’ve been making this for a couple of years now. My Hubby LOVES it! I’ve even doubled it because it heats up beautifully. Going to try it in your bread bowls next. Thanks for sharing your recipe’s.😊😋
I'm so happy to hear that! Love the idea of serving it in a bread bowl--doesn't get much cozier than that! ❤
This. Is. Perfect.
Making for the second time during this pandemic lol
Thank you so much! I’m glad you are enjoying it so much. 😊
We all need comfort food right now...you are awesome! Hope your family appreciates you!
Okay, I just made this and it so good. I never thought of putting the chili powder in it but it adds a subtle smokiness to the soup.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I've made this sooo many times. The family loves it. We eat it with cornbread. God bless you.
I’m so glad to hear this! Thank you!
This recipe is wonderful! Thank you for sharing! I mixed it with a family recipe of ours and added hotdogs to ours! It's sooooo good and my kids love it too!
I'm so glad everyone liked it! Enjoy ❤
Yuck
That looks like a wonderful recipe!
Thank you! :)
This was everything! The pot didn’t stand a chance here. 🤤
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😊😊
I just followed your video for a dinner for my girlfriend that had surgery. She said I nailed it!! Thanks!! Delicious!!
I hope she recovers quickly! I'm glad she enjoyed the soup. :)
I just found your potato soup recipe and I made it this morning and oh my gosh is it ever delicious! I told my granddaughter and her boyfriend about it and they came and they took half of it home with them. They like it so well thank you for sharing it.
I’m so glad everyone enjoys it so much! 😊😊
I kept half the bacon to put on top of soups I like my bacon crunchy :)
I am not a great cook but this was sooo good and easy! Definitely adding to our dinner rotation!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😊
How many potatoes do you use?
The only addition this needs is cheese! Otherwise amazing recipe!
You can never go wrong with cheese. :)
@@SugarSpunRun Oh yeah? Tell that to Leonard Hofstadter
@@jaxxboss1 I think the milk and heavy cream, may already contain lactose. But then again, I'm not a theoretical physicist.
@@torr8637 I see that you caught my drift, but the "never go wrong with cheese" goes beyond this recipe. The neurological substrates that subserve global information processing, which is required for all cognitive reasoning, including scientific inquiry, making my research ipso facto prior in the ordo cognoscendi
@@SugarSpunRun you said that at the end 😝
I just made this warm savory delicious potato soup. I followed the directions to the t. Perfect soup and when you add cheese and sour cream, taste like baked potato soup. thank you so much and will look at other recipes. Thanks so much.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😊
Thank you so much for this recipe, I made it today and everyone loved it. The perfect soup for this cold weather. 🙂
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I made this last night for dinner and just ate another bowl for lunch today. Thanks so much for sharing this ♡
Wonderful! I'm so happy you like it 😊
I just made your potato soup recipe. Served with a big spoon of sour cream on top and mild cheddar cheese. Delicious. I am now a subscriber. Best Wishes. Grandpa Jones. 😃
Thank you so much! I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it!! 😊😊
This is my go to recipe. I load it up each time I make potato soup. It's soooo good.
I’m so glad you enjoy it so much! 😊
So I have made my potato soup for my family for years. I wanted something new. With 3 teens and 3 under 10 years I was wondering if i would find anything they all like the same. I came across your recipe and thought why not. I changed a few things that I knew that my family would not like but pretty much followed almost exactly. I made a triple batch. they ALL loved it. The Leftovers didn't stay. my daughter came by and had some and now she's dying for your recipe. Thank you for sharing.
You're so welcome! I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
I'm making it now, Just need to let it simmer. Cant wait! Thank You.
I hope everyone loves it! 😊
Wow! Absolutely amazing. Totally fell in love with this. The soup recipe is pretty good too. Lol. I use your recipes because you speak clearly and are easy to understand. The ingredients are listed in the description and it seems you make all the stuff I find yummy. Thanks for the help my family is beginning to think I'm a culinary genius. Can I be your number one fan?
I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
I have been cooking potato soup for about 6 yrs and thought I might give this a try. I find that the garlic is a little over the top. I like garlic but this recipe has way too much. Seems like the more it simmered the stronger the garlic smelled . I might recommend not using it , perhaps adding as it's served. The texture is great but I'm going to dispose of this batch and try again without.
