The first time I made this creamy satisfying soup, it instantly became my family's favorite, recalls Stephanie Moon, of Boise, Idaho. It is perfect on chilly days. Even those who don't normally like Swiss cheese savor this delicious soup. Ingredients:
4 medium potatoes (about 2 pounds), peeled and cubed |
3/4 cup chopped onion |
1 small carrot, chopped |
1/4 cup chopped celery |
1-1/2 cups chicken broth |
3 tablespoons butter, cubed |
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2-1/2 cups milk |
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded swiss cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the potatoes, onion, carrot, celery and broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender; lightly mash.
2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir into potato mixture.
