When I made this recipe last time, I chopped up potato peels & added to soup. skins added flavor & texture, you may want to try this. I also understand that most of vitamins & minerals are in skin of potato. ArcaMax RE: Potatoe Soup that Uses Milk Post By Claudia- MD (Guest Post) (12/08/2005) Here's what my mom does- Peel, cut up potatoes; cut up onion and celery; put all these veg in a pot and cover with water; add salt, pepper and a little butter. Cook until veg is tender. Put milk in a jar, add cornstarch and shake until smooth. Add this to the veg/water mixture. Cook until the soup thickens. Great cold weather meal. (Sorry I dont have the amounts- when I do it I just use my judgment and it comes out fine.) RE: Potatoe Soup that Uses Milk Post by mousie (31) | (12/07/2005) Contact Good, simple potato soup... Dice 5 or 6 large potatoe and 3 large onions. Cook in just enough water to cover until tender. Add a quart of whole milk or 1 pint of 1/2 & !/2 and 2 tablespoons of butter (optional) Heat until hot but not boiling.

RE: Potatoe Soup that Uses Milk Post By Dede (Guest Post) (12/07/2005) I have always used milk, not 1/2&1/2. I boil potatoes, carrots, celery, onions. When finished, drain most of the water off, then put a stick or so of oleo/butter in with a little milk, then I add velvetta cheese. Let it all melt on low heat, so nothing scorches. Stir often. You can omit the cheese or whatever you don't like of the above, except the tators. It really is tasty. Let me know if you try it seachelle1 @ cox.net
