Instructions
If using sausage links, get them ready to cook. Take the covers off. Heat a big saucepan. Over medium heat. Add the sausage. Breaking it into little bits. As it cooks. Continue cooking. Mixing every so often. Until all of the sausage has browned. Ten to twelve minutes. Reserve the cooked sausage. You should set aside 1 tablespoon of the liquid. As it simmers. To taste, add butter if desired. To make up the difference.
Sauté Vegetables: Away from the reserved drips. For the butter, add 2 tablespoons. And melt over medium heat. Add the diced onions, celery, and carrots. Cooking for about 5 minutes. Until they begin to soften. Stir in the minced garlic. And cook. For another minute.
Build the Soup Base: Sprinkle the flour. Upon the caramelized veggies. Make sure to mix thoroughly. Two minutes of cooking time. In order to get rid of the raw flour flavor. Gradually pour in the chicken broth. Stirring regularly to deglaze the pot. And stir in the bottom-browning bits. Enhancing the taste. Slowly whisk in the heavy cream, spicy sauce, soy sauce, and spice blend.
Simmer the Soup: Increase the heat. To bring the mixture to a boil. Then reduce it to a simmer. Clean and dice the potatoes. Into 1-inch cubes. Then add them to the pot. Let the soup simmer uncovered. For 20-25 minutes. Or until the potato flesh is soft and fluffy.
Whisk together and enjoy! After cooking, add the sausage back to the saucepan and mix to incorporate. Turn the heat down to low if you like. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and stir to combine. Blend until completely dissolved and completely smooth. Serve the soup hot. Garnished with red pepper flakes. And fresh parsley.
Enjoy your warm, savory Sausage Potato Soup!
Notes
To make this Sausage Potato Soup gluten-free. Simply substitute the all-purpose flour. With a gluten-free flour mix or cornstarch. To thicken the soup. Ensure that the sausage you pick. Contains no gluten according to the labeling. I say this because gluten is a filler that certain sausages may include. Make sure your soy sauce is also clean. Otherwise, any broth that is used. Moreover, it does not contain any gluten. Enjoy the same satisfying experience in this manner. As well as savory soup. Free of gluten worries. Reaching its ideal state. For those who have to watch what they eat.
