Pennsyvania Dutch Potato Soup Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Bring potatoes, onion, water and salt to a boil in a large pan. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Add celery and carrot.
• 2. Stir in milk and return to simmer. Cook until heated through.
• 3. Just before serving, stir in butter, eggs, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper, as needed.

Steps:

• Cook potatoes and onion in boiling salted water until tender- drain.
• Add 1 quart of milk to potatoes and heat, and then blend in the salt, pepper and parsley.
• Cut butter into flour- blend together the egg and milk using only enough milk to make the mixture thin enough to drop into the hot soup.
• Cover and cook about 10 minutes.
• Serve at once.

Steps:

• Place the potato cubes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two.
• Melt 1/2 cup of butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the onions and celery until they are reduced and browned, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 glass baking dishes, each 9x13 inches.
• Place another 1/2 cup of butter into the work bowl of a stand mixer, and add the cooked potatoes. Start the mixer on Low setting. While mixer is running, pour in 1 cup of milk, and add 1 tablespoon of seasoned salt and 4 slices of torn bread. Mix those ingredients briefly into the mixture, and pour in 1/2 cup of milk and 4 more bread slices. Mix that addition, and then mix in 2 more bread slices.
• After the last 2 bread slices have been roughly incorporated, place another 1/2 cup of butter, 1 tablespoon of seasoned salt, all the onions, celery, and butter from the skillet, and 4 more slices of bread into the mixer bowl. Mix to incorporate, and finally mix in 2 to 4 additional torn bread slices. Allow the mixer to run until the dressing is the desired consistency.
• Place half the dressing into each prepared baking dish, and top the dressing with the remaining 1/2 cup of butter, cut into thin slices and scattered over the top. Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon of seasoned salt evenly over the top of the dishes. Cover the dishes with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the dressing is browned, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• 1. Combine first 7 ingredients in large soup pot and simmer until potatoes are tender. Add chicken boullion to taste during cooking. Add cream to finished soup right before serving. Do not boil after cream is added.
• 2. This could also be made in a slow cooker for 3 hours on high or 5 hours on the low setting. The cream can also be added to each individual bowl after serving.

Steps:

• Boil ham shanks for 3 hours in large pot.
• Remove ham shanks and set aside to cool.

• Quarter the head of cabbage and wash. Add to pot and bring to boil.
• Clean the cooled ham shanks, removing the meat from the bone and add to the pot.
• Boil another 1/2 hour and let cool for 1/2 hour.
