Notes
Tips for Potato Soup:
Use russet or Yukon gold potatoes.
Cut potatoes into small chunks and they will cook faster.
If you don't have cornstarch to thicken the soup, remove about a cup of the cooked potatoes and mash them. Stir them back into the soup to thicken.
If you are adding cheese, add it at the very end of cooking.
