Here’s how to prepare the grandma’s homemade potato soup:

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds russet potatoes (peeled and cut into large chunks, about 1-1/2 inch in size)
  • ½ cup of chopped sweet onion
  • ½ cup celery, chopped
  • 12 ounces evaporated milk
  • ¼ to ½ cup of butter (to taste)
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • Green onion or herbs for a garnish
  • Water
  • Cheese, bacon (optional)

Preparation:

At first, take a large bowl and toss the potatoes with flour, celery, and onion. Season with salt and pepper and set the mixture aside to sit for about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a soup pot and add the potato mixture. Stir and pour water to cover the potatoes completely. Bring the mixture to a boil, and add the milk. Stir, lower the heat to simmer, and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.

You can use a potato masher to puree the potatoes to get a less chunky texture. Lastly, season the soup with salt and pepper, and cook until the soup gets the desired consistency and thickness.
