• Bring mixture to a boil, whisking frequently, and let boil about 1 minute (you can also mash up the potatoes a little if desired).
• Serve warm with cheddar, bacon, and green onions or parsley. Note that soup will thicken as it rests (especially overnight with all those starches, so thin with more milk as desired).

INSTANT POT POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Turn the Instant Pot to saute and add the oil. Add the onions and cook, stirring often, until starting to brown.
• Add the salt, garlic, parsley, thyme and pepper. Stir and cook one minute. Turn the Instant Pot off, and add the broth, scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to remove any browned bits.
• Slice and cut potatoes into 1cm cubes and add to the Instant Pot.
• Add carrots and celery. Put the lid on, turn the valve to sealing and select Manual, high pressure, for 3 minutes.
• It will take about 20 minutes total, including the time it takes to build pressure. Once the cook time is over, do a gradual quick release by slowly open the valve to release the pressure. You don't want to let it all release at once or it could sputter and foam.
• When the lid is off, turn the Instant Pot to saute.
• Whisk together the evaporated milk and corn starch and stir into the soup. Cook and stir until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.

INSTANT POT POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Turn a 6QT Instant Pot onto the saute setting. Add bacon and cook until crispy. Remove bacon leaving the drippings in the pot.
• Add onion, garlic, thyme, and black pepper. Stir and saute for 5 minutes to soften the onions.
• Add chicken stock and scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the Instant Pot (this will avoid a burn notice). Add the potatoes to the pot.
• Place the lid on the Instant Pot and set to high pressure for 8 minutes. When the timer goes off turn the steam valve to quick release. Remove the lid and stir the soup.
• Pour in 1 cup of the half and half and stir to combine.
• In a small bowl whisk together cold milk and cornstarch. Pour into the soup pot and stir to combine.
• Set the Instant Pot to the saute setting and cook the soup until it starts to thicken.
• If the soup is thicker than you like add the reserved ½ cup half and half. Some of the potatoes can be slightly mashed for a thicker consistency.
• Stir in the shredded cheese and serve topped with crispy bacon and sliced green onions.

• ****As a new variation for soup at home, I have been making very thin instant mashed potatoes, using chicken broth and milk for the liquid, then adding an assortment of seasonings (depends on what is on hand) like turmeric, parsley, seasoning blends, or even some flavored sea salts.
• I also like to change it up with cheese, bacon, chives, even some sour cream on top for a loaded baked potato feel.
