This is a recipe I got off of a TV show starring Jeff Smith. So, while I can't claim it as totally my own, it is a superb soup that is a total meal in itself.And, is very good on a day when the men have been out chopping wood, or outside getting ready for winter.It will fill you up, and leave you with a satified full feeling.And, everyone will leave the table feeling replete.

How To Make potato soup with rivels

  • Step 1
    Cook raw potatoes,salt, and onions in chicken broth until tender.This should take about 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Step 2
    In a small bowl,mix together egg, and flour with a fork. These are your rivels, They should be clumpy, and there should be flour left over in the small bowl.Set aside.
  • Step 3
    Chop your crispy bacon,or ham, and cook with the potatoes until heated through.
  • Step 4
    Now stirring gently with a wooden spoon, mix in your rivels. Your soup will thicken, as you stir. Hint: I have also mixed in corn,green beans,and chopped carrots to make a complete meal. No one has ever left my table hungry after eating this soup. Enjoy!
