Rustic homemade noodles are cooked in this creamy potato soup seasoned with onion, bay leaf and parsley.
INGREDIENTS (for 4 servings):
- 8 cups water
- 6 potatoes, cubed
- 1 yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley
- salt to taste
- ground black pepper to taste
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup half-and-half cream
PREPARATION:
Quarter the onion and separate the layers.
Boil 8 cups water with the potato, onion, butter, bay leaf, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.
When the potatoes are done, mix the flour, eggs, and about 1 teaspoon salt in a separate bowl. Add water until it is a thick dough.
Spoon or cut noodles into soup--I tilt the bowl over the soup and use a butter knife to cut strips as it pours.
After noodles are fluffy, pour in the cream. Heat and serve. This soup is even better the next day!
