Buttermilk And Steamed Potato Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a medium saucepan, cover with cold water, and add salt. (If using more than one variety, use a different saucepan for each to accommodate varying cooking times.) Bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer; cook until fork-tender, 10 to 20 minutes.
• While potatoes cook, heat butter and oil in a medium skillet over high heat, and add onions. Reduce heat to medium, and saute until golden brown and slightly caramelized, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Drain potatoes, and let cool briefly. For a decorative touch, use a paring knife to remove a band of peel from the center section of each potato. Divide potatoes between four soup bowls and pour 3/4 cup buttermilk into each bowl. Top with caramelized onions, season with salt and pepper, and garnish with dill. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a steamer. Fill a large pot with 1 to 2 inches water; place steamer in pot. Bring water to a simmer, cover, and steam until potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a knife, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a small skillet over medium. Add fennel; season with kosher salt. Cook,stirring occasionally, until fennel is starting to caramelize, 8 to 10 minutes. Add shallot; cookuntil golden brown and caramelized, about 5 minutes more.
• Divide potatoes evenly among 4 bowls. Pour buttermilk over potatoes. Top each bowl with fennel mixture, kale, and dill. Season with flaky salt and pepper; serve.

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes and cut into approximately 4-inch dice. Cover with water and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook until the potatoes are about half done, about 10 minutes. Add the green beans and cook until both are tender but not overdone, about 10 minutes longer. Remove from the heat, but do not drain.
• Let the potato-green bean mixture stand, uncovered, until it is at room temperature, then add the remaining ingredients. Serve at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate until chilled, if desired.
• Mid- to late summer is our brief chance to grab what we can of sun, sand, and-soup. Okay, so soup might not be something that springs immediately to mind when you think of summer pleasures, but I find few things more refreshing on a warm summer day than a bowl of cold soup.
• To round out a meal of cold soup, add a substantial salad, a good bread, and if you'd like, some fresh corn on the cob. These cool, flavorful elixirs whet the wilted appetite like nothing else can!

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until done. Remove bacon from pan, and set aside. Drain off all but 1/4 cup of the bacon grease.
• Cook celery and onion in reserved bacon drippings until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes. Add cubed potatoes, and toss to coat. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Return bacon to the pan, and add enough chicken stock to just cover the potatoes. Cover, and simmer until potatoes are tender.
• In a separate pan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the heavy cream, tarragon, and cilantro. Bring the cream mixture to a boil, and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Stir the cream mixture into the potato mixture. Puree about 1/2 the soup, and return to the pan. Adjust seasonings to taste.

Steps:

• Whisk together buttermilk, sour cream, and salt in a bowl, then stir in remaining ingredients. Chill 15 minutes before serving.
