Notes: I sometimes make a combination of cauliflower and potato soup. I also sometimes add a little kernel corn to the potato soup. We like our soup chunky but you can puree the soup or part of it for a smoother texture. Mom made her potato soup with all 2 % milk and no beef stock. Mom always served the potato soup with a small dab of butter on the top of each bowl and with chili sauce to add at the table.
