Maybe you should stick with canned soup.

I had high hopes, but wow was this soup gross. It just tasted like liquid refried beans. I am quite seriously thinking of throwing out the whole pot.

I made this tonight and it was delicious. I substituted avocado oil for the olive oil, and added 1 tsp of maple syrup at the end of cooking, after reading some of the comments mentioning acidity to prevent this. I also added an additional 2 cups of vegetable stock which I recommend to get the right consistency. Next time I make this I am going to leave out the lemon juice since it made the soup taste like Greek lemon potatoes – it was still delicious, but I’d like to try without the lemon just the same. I also used my Ninja blender for this which made the soup texture perfect, and I will try my Braun immersion blender next time.

This soup goes great with a big juicy pork chop.

In reply to Anna Alpizar. Oh man! Too late- any advice on fixing it when I thaw??

In reply to Anna Alpizar. Hi Anna, while most soups do freeze well, the texture of potato soups really change, they become more gritty when thawed. I'd recommend just storing it in the fridge for up to about 5 days.

Made this today to serve at a later date- does it freeze well?

Made this… it just doesn’t taste right. I followed the comment below adding the baking soda and it did help some. I finally did what any desperate American would do and dumped in a few handfuls of cheddar cheese and some chopped bacon… as well as a healthy dose of black pepper. Yup, this is better.

I love Love and Lemons, but this recipe is kind of sad.

I love so many of your recipes and have your cookbook book. made the potato leek soup and used good white cannelloni beans – love the added protein but this turned out tasting almost as much like beans as it did leek and potato .
