Feb 25th, 2010 by Grandmother Wren
We’re having a day of icy winter rain, other parts of the country are being blanketed by (more!) snow -
it’s a good day for soup, followed by Joy’s Nectar Cake!
POTATO SOUP (Gruumbier Suupe)
4 cups diced potatoes
1 medium onion
3 tblsp. flour
1 tblsp. butter
1 qt. milk
1 egg, beaten
salt and pepper
parsley
Boil potatoes and onion in small amount of water until soft. Add milk, salt and pepper then reheat. Brown flour in the butter and blend it slowly into the potato mixture. Add a little water to the beaten egg and stir into the soup. Let it cook for a few minutes and serve with a sprinkling of chopped parsley.

Delicious. I have been making more and more homemade soups; the canned ingredients have just degraded too much over the years. Thank you for sharing this potato soup recipe. I’ll be trying it out soon.
(All that cold, ice and snow must mean global warming. Wink. Wink.)
I think you have inspired me. I haven’t made potatoe soup in years. Now I really want some. I may even use your recipe tonight!
