Hi Ella,
Greetings from Montreal, QC. This recipe looks really great. What cheese would you suggest to add to this soup?
Cheddar type works great:) But any other type will be fine.. whatever you like best
Nice recipe. Because I couldn’t recall whether I used one or two bouillon cubes I added the water left over from cooking young potatoes in my Instant Pot as well as two extra pre-cooked potatoes while blending. I used a semi-hard sheep cheese to top it off.
This soup looks delicious, I also want to try it, thank you for sharing the way.
Can this cream soup be frozen?
Excellent Sunday night supper. Very tasty
