Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup vegan butter
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion diced
  • 1/8 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 6 cups vegan chicken-style broth
  • 8 cups Russet potatoes cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 3 tablespoons vegan sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Set a large pot over medium heat and add the butter. When the butter is melted, add the onion and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened.
  • Whisk in the flour, marjoram, caraway seeds, and black pepper.
  • Gradually add the vegan chicken broth, whisking continuously until smooth.
  • Add the cubed potatoes. Bring just to a boil then reduce to low heat. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Remove from heat.
  • Whisk in the sour cream until fully incorporated. Adjust seasoning to taste, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot.

Blended Soup Option:

  • For a creamy potato soup, use an immersion blender or potato masher to blend or mash the potato chunks to your desired consistency. Alternatively, transfer half of the soup to a blender, then puree and return to the pot to serve.
