This is a great recipe, it is exactly how my Grandfather used to make it and when I saw and ate this It brought back so many memories of him and I playing cards, and eating this soup on a cold winter days. Kudos!!!!

Try taking out some of the cooked potatoes and mashing them and adding them back in the soup to thicken it. Also, try sauteeing some leeks in the butter in place of the onions and adding them to the soup when potatoes are done. Enjoy!

I was looking for a recipe that was like my Mom's. THIS IS IT. Finally... my son loves it and my husband... he's picky LOL... my daughter... doesn't like most foods so she gets something else... that's okay.. more for my son and me.

Best potato soup ever. It is so easy to make, it takes about 5 min to do it. We never had to buy anything, we had all the stuff in ore house. It is the best ever!!! LOVE IT!!!

like mamas

I add cheese and bacon bites but to thicken it I add onion and chive cream cheese. My family loves this soup.

This is the way I make my soup, but mix some flour with water, salt and pepper and stir in after potatoes are done to thicken. Never tried crackers with it, sounds good as a lot of other reviews variations! Thanks for posting!

Cook bacon, saute onions and one can of cream corn. Add to the soup. :) YUM

I love how someone commented, "Too much pepper" when there are no actual measurements on this recipe.

My only change was to saute my onion in butter w/garlic. One of the easier recipes I've made, and what a great taste !

About to give this recipe a try, hope its as good as everyone says.

I use a similar preparation. Like most commenters, I add bacon, but fix it up first by carmelizing it in a separate pan first with sugar and adding the onions. I overcook the bacon slightly, and add it towards the end so it doesn't turn out soggy.

This is the same soup that my grandmother made for us when we were growing up in the 60s.. Delicious then and now...

I'm real sick right, now great recipe. Lovin it! Mclovin

Luv this recipe... added broccoli and topped with cheese.
