A variation to this wonderful soup, is to clean & snap fresh gr. beans (1-1 1/2 lbs); cover w/water; when done continue w/ recipe as written. If any water evaporated from beans, just add to to make 2 c. This is my mother's recipe. Now I make for my grandchildren. They love it!!

Soup recipes like this don't LOOK like they'll taste delicious, but surprisingly enough, they do! I pureed it slightly, until there was small chunks and not huge chunks, because I like it that way. Next time I wouldn't add so much pepper - a tiny bit hot for my taste. But very very good!

Perfect! I added a handful of cheddar cheese at the end but I suspect it would have been excellent as is!

I have made this soup several times. It is the BEST potato soup ever. The sour cream really makes the soup yummy.

This is definitely a keeper! My family loved it and it was quick and easy enough to make on a week night. I also liked that it was a small batch, not a huge pot of soup. I cut back on the sour cream a bit, to maybe 5-6 ounces and it was fine.

my guests loved this soup. the sour cream sort of stumped me as it ended up a little lumpy. also i added some potato flakes as i used skim milk and it wasn't thick enough for me. this recipe is waaaay better than the one i have. thanks. G

This recipe is like mine. I add the flour to the sour cream. I have passed this recipe to my family and they love it.
