Soup Ingredients

  • 4-5 medium organic russet potatoes, peeled + cubed Yukon potatoes can also be used.
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • ½ cup red onion, chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons On Everything All-Purpose Blend Can purchase or make your own.

Soup Instructions

  • In a medium-sized dutch oven pot over medium high-heat, add the olive oil and butter. Once heated and the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and chopped onions, and sauté until translucent + fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add the smoked paprika and On Everything All-Purpose Blend, stirring until combined.
  • Add in the cubed potatoes, stir to combine, and add in the vegetable stock. Bring everything to a boil for 1-2 minutes and reduce the heat to low and allow to simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes become tender and cooked through. Note: I prefer to let the potatoes simmer an extra 10 minutes until almost broken down which helps to naturally thicken the soup.
  • Add in the heavy cream, kale (if using), and white cooking wine followed by the freshly-grated sharp cheddar, stirring frequently until the cheese has melted. Once creamy, remove from heat.
  • Remove from heat and serve immediately into prepared bowl(s), top with freshly chopped parsley or green onions (scallion), and with a side of bread, if desired.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Can also be frozen for 4-6 months.
