MOM’S WINTER WONDER POTATO SOUP
Here’s a warming winning winter recipe. Light and quick to make. Try this one on a
cold winter afternoon. Simple, delicious and steaming. You can go out and play in the
snow after a bowl of this delightful inexpensive soup. Excellent for dieters. This soup
tastes watery at first, but in a few hours the flavors magically infuse in to the potatoes
especially after being cooled and reheated. The longer it sits the better it tastes. It’s a
special soup handed down from generations of Europeans on a low budget.
8 medium size peeled potatoes
1 pint sour cream (DO NOT USE LOW FAT)
2 large peeled onions (cut up)
1 medium size diced up carrot
4 big tbs. rinsed sprigs of parsley torn up with no stems
Salt and black pepper
Put 4 quarts of cold water in to a 6-quart pot.
Cut the onions and potatoes in to about half
inch chunks.
Dice up one medium sized carrot.
Put the cut up potatoes, onions, and the
diced up carrot in to the pot.
Put the torn up parsley in to the pot.
Put in about a half
teas. of salt and black pepper.
Boil on medium heat until carrots and potatoes are fork
tender.
Put the sour cream in to a container or bowl and using a fork GRADUALLY mix
a little COLD water in with it until smooth (until little or no lumps and just so you can
pour it in nicely).
Then add this smoothened sour cream mixture in with the soup in the
pot.
Stir well.
Serve and get warmed!
Tastes much better the next day after the soup has
been chilled and has set awhile then reheated.
This soup is sure to grow on you.
DELICIOUS and LIGHT! Also good for breakfast on very cold winter mornings so
when you go outside you definitely will not feel that winter chill. Simple and one of my
favorites.
NOTE: Sour cream brands are NOT equal. Keep trying different brands of
sour cream until you find a brand that you like.
