How To Make garlicky potato soup w/ parmesan toasts

  • Step 1
    Adjust oven rack to middle position & heat oven to 475 degrees F. Combine parmesan, 2 Tbsp butter & 1/2 tsp pepper in bowl. Spread parmesan butter on 1 side of baguette slices. Place bread, buttered side up, on rimmed baking sheet & bake until golden brown, 6 - 8 minutes; set aside.
  • Step 2
    Meanwhile, melt remaining 1 Tbsp butter in dutch oven over medium heat. Cook scallion whites until softened, about 2 minutes. Add garlic & flour & cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in broth, cream & potatoes & bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium low, cover & cook until potatoes are tender, 10 - 12 minutes.
  • Step 3
    Working in batches, process soup in blender or food processor until smooth, 1 - 2 minutes. Return soup to pot. Season with salt & pepper to taste & sprinkle with scallion greens. Server with parmesan toasts.
