Potato flakes can be used to thicken all kinds of soups. You can even use them in place of cornstarch or flour when making gravy.

I just mash some of the potatoes. It works for me. Hope it works for you.

Right..or cornstarch, butter, etc. All this was before instant potatoes, when I learned to cook!

When my soups aren't thick enough, I just melt tbsp of butter in a pan and whisk in 2 tbsp of flour. Be sure to blend thoroughly and add to soup mixture.
