For an extra smoky flavor, try using smoked paprika in place of some of the black pepper. If you prefer a smoother soup, you can use an immersion blender to partially or fully blend the soup before adding the sour cream. Don't overcook the potatoes, or the soup will be gummy. Feel free to add other toppings like chives, hot sauce, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
