For an even richer flavor, try using chicken broth instead of water and bouillon. Crisp bacon bits and shredded Cheddar cheese make excellent toppings. A swirl of sour cream or a dollop of Greek yogurt adds a tangy finish. Adjust the amount of cornstarch slurry to achieve your desired soup thickness. Consider adding a pinch of nutmeg for a subtle warmth. If you like your soup chunkier, mash only some of the potatoes before adding the cream. To add a smoky flavor, use smoked paprika or add a ham hock while cooking.

May 13, 2025I found that the soup was thick enough without all the cornstarch. I'd suggest starting with half and adding more if needed.
