This is my version of comfort food (except that I've become lactose intolerant, sigh). But still, there are just times when I need to break out my Mom's potato soup recipe. And it's written like a Mom-recipe -- no real measurements, all to taste, etc. Oh, and this is one of those recipes that tastes better with more pepper than salt. . .

How To Make potato soup

  • Step 1

Cover the potatoes with milk (less or more as individual taste dictates). Add butter. Add sour cream, salt, and pepper to taste. Simmer at low to medium low heat for a few minutes. DO NOT BOIL!
