Loaded Baked Potato Soup 416 Servings: 8Difficulty: EasyTime: 1 hour 20 minutesProvided by: Jason Martin, Chef de Cuisine, Main Street Restaurants, Disneyland Park Ingredients Print Recipe | |
1 pound | bacon, roughly chopped |
1 medium | yellow onion, diced |
1 large | carrot, peeled and diced |
3/4 cup | diced celery |
4 large | Russet potatoes, peeled and diced |
4 medium | red potatoes, diced |
1/4 cup | flour |
2 cups | chicken |
vegetable stock, alternative | |
coarse salt | |
freshly ground pepper to taste | |
4 cups | heavy whipping cream |
Optional garnishes: chopped chives, bacon bits, sour cream, shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese
Directions
1. In a 6-8 quart stockpot over medium heat, fry bacon until crisp.
2. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels (reserve half for garnish). In the bacon fat, cook onions, carrots, and celery until the onions are translucent. Add potatoes and cook for 4 minute stirring occasionally.
3. Whisk in flour and stir constantly over low heat until the flour is cooked and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Add chicken stock and half of the bacon. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Over medium-high heat, bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 25 minutes or until the potatoes are soft. Mash some of the potatoes for thicker, creamier texture. Add whipping cream and simmer for 5 minutes.
5. Adjust thickness by adding water or stock. Soup should have a creamy consistency.
6. Season to taste and garnish with toppings.
Cooks' notes: Soak diced potatoes in cold water until ready to use to keep them from turning brown. To make the bacon easier to chop, lightly freeze.
