Amishcountrypotatosoup Recipes

Steps:

• Combine potatoes, water, carrot, onion, chicken base, and salt in a 6-quart soup pot over medium heat. Cook until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in 1 cup milk.
• Stir sour cream and flour together in a small bowl until blended; mix in remaining 1 cup milk. Add to the soup along with the ham, reduce heat to low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soup thickens, 30 to 45 minutes. Stir in cheese cubes and parsley and cook until melted and thick, about 10 more minutes.

Steps:

• Chop bacon.
• Saute' bacon, celery and onion in a deep sauce pan.
• (I drain the fat before going on to the next step, but the recipe doesn't call for it).
• Add potatoes, water, bay leaf, salt, pepper and celery salt and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat, cover and let simmer for 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
• Mash lightly, leave about 1/4 whole.
• Remove bay leaf and add milk, worcestershire sauce and parsley.
• Bring to a boil.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Season generously with salt. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to medium and continue to cook until the potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, begin the dressing. Combine the vinegar and sugar in a small microwave-safe bowl. Cook until the sugar has dissolved, about 30 seconds. Add the mixture to a food processor along with the mustard, celery seed and the yolk of 1 of the hard-boiled eggs. Pulse until combined.
• Drain the potatoes and add to a large bowl. Toss together with 2 tablespoons of the dressing and reserve the remaining dressing in the food processor. Chill the potatoes in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Finish the dressing by adding the mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon salt, remaining 2 eggs plus the egg white and 1 cup of the potatoes, reserving the remaining potatoes for the salad. Process until smooth yet with some texture remaining.
• Mix the reserved potatoes with the dressing along with the celery, onion and relish. Taste for seasoning.

Steps:

• Sprinkle yeast over water that has been placed in your mixer.
• Allow the yeast to activate and then mix in sugar.
• Then add potatoes, salt, shortening, and eggs.
• Add flour a cup at a time stopping at 8.
• Only add enough of the remaining flour to get an only slightly sticky feel. The dough should be workable but not dry.
• Place in a greased bowl and cover with a towel.
• Allow to rise till doubled in a warm place.
• Measure another 1/2 c flour into a bowl.
• Spray hands with pan spray (will need to repeat this as the dough starts to stick a bit).
• Break off dough and form into rolls.
• Roll into flour just to coat.
• Place on a greased pan and allow to rise till almost doubled.
• Bake in a preheated 350°F oven 20-25 minutes or till lightly browned.
• Prep time does not include rise time as that will vary.
