She notes, "I sometimes add an extra cup or so of sliced potatoes. It ends up being closer to a cream of potato soup consistency which I really like.

"My dad likes chunks in his so I cook up an extra potato or two in another pot, cut it up, and then let him add it to his soup."

Creamy Potato Soup
My mother-in-law was temporarily placed on a liquid diet by her doctor, so I looked to "Tammy's Recipes" for recipe ideas. I cooked a batch of Creamy Potato Soup for her, and she and my father-in-law liked it so much that my father-in-law called to ask if I'd make some more. He said it worked perfectly for her. I also made enough for my family, and we loved it, too. My son asked if I'd make it the next night. It's an excellent soup.

yum!
I forgot to rate this when we had it a while back.I did not puree the potatoes until smooth and also I thicken mine doing the same way you did with the flour but using corn starch.I also added the dill to the soup and not the bowls later.I left out the croutons too.I wanted them but forgot to purchase them.Dh & I really liked the flavor the dill added to this.

Perfect winter time soup
This is my favourite soup! It is especially nice since we are able to store our own potatoes to make it throughout the winter.
