Miss Phyllis-- to make it easier to peel your potatoes, before you start boiling them score them 1/4 inch deep with a knife in a circle around them like a belt kind of. Then boil like usual. Once they're done, you should be able to kinda pinch or squeeze on either side of the "belt" and the peels slip off for the most part!!! Hope that helps you!!!

Heidi Hudgins why peel them, that's where all the vitamins and minerals are.

So wish Phyllis was still with us. What a gentle spirit. RIP dear lady.

I just keep watching these older videos and I just keep missing you more and more, Phyllis ❤

I really enjoy watching your videos Your soft spoken voice is very pleasant. and calming and you are very good at explaining things. Thank you for sharing all your wholesome and good recipes with us I love to cook but somehow I make a huge mess when I cook and you really don't make a mess in the kitchen That takes a special talent 👌 I have been binge watching your videos because it's just nice listening to you and hearing your occasional stories from times past. And I don't mind it that your voice isn't loud because a lot of people demonstrating on KZread have music and lots of loud talking or too much stuff going on You have a polite way of speaking and your kindness comes across on your channel I watch your videos to relax and also enjoy your stories from the past It's almost like reading a good book Thank you Phyllis

I miss her so much. Any time I had a bad day I would come home and just binge on Miss Phyllis. Immediately I would calm down and be in my happy place.

I have the same pot. I boil my eggs in it, ears of corn, macaroni and use it for hot dogs and many other things. You are one awesome lady!

Since this video is 3 years old, you maybe not see this, but I use the micro for corn still in its husks, I sometimes have to cut the stem down a little for it to fit in my micro but leave all the husks on and micro it for about 3 mins for two ears. It’s so easy to clean off the husks and silk from the ears after it’s done. My sister suggested I use this method about 40 years ago and I still cook it this way, never boil it. Only thing is, it’s very hot, so I usually use a cup towel or paper towels to hold it to clean.

My mother would saute onions and celery first, then add in any flour, then the milk and potatoes. She never blended the potatoes as she didn't like that, so we'd have the potatoes in cubes. If the soup needed more thickening, she mash a few of the potatoes with a fork. I was thinking some crumbled bacon would be good on that soup! Every time I see potato soup on a menu in a restaurant, it's made with chicken broth. I've mistakenly ordered it a few times, and it's just vile that way. If I want chicken soup, I'll have chicken soup. Potato soup is milk and potatoes, no chicken anywhere near it!

good idea

I agree with Oh Deer.....reminder to self: get nonfat dry milk. My aunt who was my dad's sister (an old maid) lived in this house before she passed.....I grew up in this house...but she always kept dry milk because she said that no one should ever run out of milk. When she was young she used to milk cows and our family had fresh milk, cream, butter, butter milk and clabber. I love potato soup and I'm with Mr. Bucky.....I like cheese, and bacon....I don't have to have the onions but I could use them too!!! Thanks for the video. I have made potato soup by steaming little tiny diced potatoes to barely done...drain, add flour, butter and milk and salt and pepper and let it come to almost a boil....as you said. I will have to try your version. Either way...made me hungry!!! :)

I just wanted to say that I love your videos and devotions with Mr. Bucky you brighten my day and your stories are delightful.. thank you so much

It’s her soup let her show us her way. Why do people always have a negative statement or tell her how to do it, Please 🤐

When my mother made potato soup, we would put a chopped up onion in it and served it with cornbread. I love potato soup . That is one recipe of my moms that I can make with the outcome like hers. We like it with lots of potato chunks in it.

This is a perfect recipe for today. Cold with snow on the ground. Thinking and praying for you Ms. Phyllis

Re watching old videos and I would definitely add onions it makes what ever dish you are making. Mrs. Phyllis had great videos and she was an amazing cook and homemaker

I can’t stop watching you, I’m addicted to the amazing stuff you can do with your time, I still work outside the house, and I’m getting tired 😴 I need easy recipes that don’t take so long, I always cook longer meals, and then go to bed.

These videos bring me so much comfort.. I wish i would of started watching sooner and wrote comments to this awesome lady... We have had 2 brain cancer diagnosis my son and son in law there doing good..i started watching these videos during my dads dementia and sickness he was 81 he passed jan 3 2020..love watching these videos .

One thing I've learned watching these video's, it's impossible to diet while watching Phyllis Stokes cook! :)

My mom makes something similar but she puts onions, carrots, and celery too. Mmmm, it all looks good! I have to agree with Mr Bucky!

lorraine - I think using a potato ricer might also give a nice consistency if one favors more pieces of 🥔 in their 🍜. Yum 😋

I realy wish we had a cookbook with ALL her recipees❤ I would still watch the videos and have them playing in the background.

I find it hard to believe your mom passed 3 years ago. What a sweet lady she was! Still enjoy her recipes. It’s cold here in Toronto, Canada need to make potato soup like your mom’s recipe.

I sure do miss this lady I'm not really much of a cook but I enjoyed watching all of her videos. What I miss the most is that the end of her videos ending with "bye for now".❤

Every recipes is so mouthwatering. My favorite part is when you plate the food with so much love. We miss you dearly Mrs. Phyllis❤

One of my favorite! Winter is on its way, live in North Dakota. Thank you beautiful lady. God bless

Awwwww, I miss her and this came on my newsfeed. RIP 💜

Potato soup plus fresh home-baked bread plus a little salad for dinner sounds just so yummy! Im sure glad i found your channel Miss Phyllis. Thank you for sharing. My grandparents had Southern roots and listening to you sounds so much like grandma. That is a compliment! God bless you and thanks for sharing with us.

I love potato soup! When the bag of potatoes is getting old and wrinkled, that's when to make it. That's when the starches and sugars have concentrated. Also, add to it what you want: Onion, Garlic, Celery, Bread, Cheese! This is a soup that fed people for hundreds if not thousands of years! Thank you Phyllis. I know I'm late, but I'm still hungry! :)

This looks wonderful. My grandmother is coming to visit me in a week. She loves soup. I will have to try and make this for her.

I love kitchen sink potato soup. We add baby carrots, corn, onion and cabbage to ours. The baby carrots are pre-cooked before adding. The onions and cabbage are sauteed and added. The corn is just a can of corn or leftover corn added in along with the rest near the end of cooking the soup. Top with cheddar cheese, green onion tops and bacon.. and yum yum yum. The soup is made the same way Miss Phyllis makes hers. One other change we make is rather than adding salt to the soup we sprinkle a little paprika, which has a salty taste without the sodium, over each bowl of soup.

This looks so easy and delicious.....I will be making this soon. Thank you Phyllis, you are delightful to watch and it just like being in your kitchen with private cooking lessons!

I made this and on a dare used instant Idaho potato flakes. You would not believe how good it tasted.

Big bowl of this and I'll be sleeping like a baby!

Miss Phyllis I absolutely love watching your videos. You make things look easy to cook.

I just made this soup! Man is it creamy and delicious! I so appreciate your time in sharing your recipes! I have not disliked anything I have made. Potato Soup for dinner tonight and some pina colada jello for dessert later! 💛👍🏻⭐️🐷

My mother in law use to make potato soup and it was delicious! She'd serve it with corn bread. I'm gonna have to try this version of potato soup. I cant wait to taste it. It looks sooo good!

That looks so good. That’s interesting that dry milk works better. I didn’t know that. This is a great winter meal. My family (growing up) ate potatoes in some form everyday, sometimes twice per day. I don’t know how my mom did all that peeling! These videos are very calming to watch at night or early morning. I “fast forward” over the blender/electric mixer parts sometimes. 😄 Thank you so very much! Blessings to your family, Mr. Steve!

thank you Phyllis for the recipe. the cold weather is coming and that will be a great soup to make. and i sure like that pot. very nifty to boil potatoes and eggs. never seen a pot like that before.

I made a large batch of your potato soup...I put cooked bacon pieces into it, and some finely chopped onion, and we all loved it, Phyllis. I'll be making it again. Thanks so much for your recipes.

This looks good.i eat soup all yr round.again thank you.

Potato soup is a tradition with me! Mom always made it once a week in winter! I live some miles from town, think I will buy some powdered milk in case I get snowed in ! I can eat this good soup anytime though! THANK YOU!!!

It looks delicious, thank you for showing us this and both bowls look good!

I get so many great recipe from you. Thank you for sharing.

I want an asparagus pot!!! That's amazing and I love love potato soup... saving your post, like normal!! Blessings you wonderful woman

Thank you for this delicious looking recipe Miss Phyllis! When I do not have milk of any kind, I use water to make the white sauce and add loads of butter and cheese afterwards. It gets me by. I got a good chuckle when you mentioned the children would sleep! My daughter and I enjoyed our afternoon naps :)

I have one and love it for boiling eggs and potatoes - all kinds of things!

I have that same asparagus steamer. I use it to do my corn on the cob, potatoes, blanching all sorts of veggies, like broccoli, green beans, and cauliflower. I also use it to steam tamales when I’m craving Mexican food. You are spot on about it being a great value. If I remember correctly, I got mine off Amazon.

I have always loved potato soup but never knew how to make it now I do ty looks fabulous 👌

Miss Phyllis you sure do cook up a lot of different delicious looking meals I'm not talking about just the potato soup But all your desserts I just found your videos and glad I got them I'm from Ga also but have lived my life in Fl Thank you so much 😊💛

This looks fantastic! Thank you for sharing👍👏

Wow what a great pot. Very versatile.

I would watch my mom cook, but I have forgotten some of the things she made I wish they had videos back in the day i could go back and see how she made them. There is no greater loss then a Morher. 💗

Great soup. Miss you so much, Phyllis.

Oh MY GOODNESS... A MUST try This DISH.😃

that looks delicious , l am going to try this

I love potato soup, my Mother never made it, a cousin made it once when we visited her and I asked for her recipe so I’ve been making it ever since. I also love hamburger soup and roasted red bell pepper soup, which may be the best soup I’ve ever had. I make soup year round, after all most of our meals are hot when we eat them, same as soup would be. Since I’m alone, I try to make enough food for several meals rather than having to cook from scratch every day.

I like it just the way you made it .. Thank you

ohhhh i love that pot ! that soup loves fantastic, trying this one too! and i heard u just fine , loud and clear. keep up the good work ! u make me want to cook and i like u dont love to cook , but i do like good food !

Yum yum I love love potato soup!! I love his variety..I can't wait to make this!! Thank you so much.. blessings Always Phyllis

If you enjoy corn chowder (potato base) try the recipe from Old Mill Rest in Pigeon Forge TN you can actually get a post card stack with recipe as well as several others. I DO change the oyster stock to chicken because of seafood allergy but cant really tell the difference.

Hi Phyllis, I love this potato soup recipe. I love it even more at the end when you showed us that you can add extras. My grandchildren are picky and some don't like cheese or onions, but certainly would love the additions of either sausage or bacon. I hope your days are better. I pray that you are doing well and know that you have a youtube friend here thinking of you.

Lovely !!

l love watching you an your voice is soothing to me. l went to sleep last night watching you make chocolate covered cherries

We enjoy your videos so much!! we love you.❤

Wonderful Phyliss!!! Mike

Love mine! Merry Christmas Miss Phyllis and Mr. Buckey

amazing and amazing pot

Potato soup is great! Sometimes to change it up, add some thyme leaves, or saute fresh garlic with the butter when making the white sauce (or dried garlic/ onion powder or add butter powder or fresh butter!) I know it's rich, but oh so gooood! Thank you Phyllis and I like Mr Bucky's additions too! Cyndi

Miss you. I bet you're cooking in heaven

Your soup looks delish!

Mrs. Phyllis, I think your delicious potato soup recipe could be easily made for camping or a prepper standby too. Very inspired and now hungry. With using Idaho potato flakes, ghee/powdered butter, powdered milk like you used, the flour, and whatever extras like freeze dried sausage that people like (I never tried it, yet, but dehydrated hamburger works great in things) and anything else that people want to sprinkle in like seasonings or dehyds like onion, carrot, red bell pepper put by from the garden that someone might have in their preps already. It could be like a potato soup mix and just add boiling water if RV'ing, camping or prepping. You using the powdered milk as a backup got me to thinking. I always try to keep the LDS or Winn- Dixie (best for storing) powdered milk on hand. Potato flakes are handy too I have learned recently. I have been trying to learn to make bread with not so good results and put those two things in along with a new yeast and it was pretty good this most recent try. I saw you baked bread so will look for any videos you have on bread. Thank you!

I don't know anyone who doesn't love potatoes. Your potato soup looked tasty.. I'll take mine like MB likes his.. with a few extra additions.. Roasted garlic, olive oil and rosemary, then a little fresh squeezed lemon, sea salt and pepper.. :)

I use my phone so usually I dont comment except to the phone. I watch your videos alot, makes me feel like i know you. My daughter and her family live in Chapin, S.C. so far away from me, Grand Ronde, Oregon about 50 miles South of Portland. I have a grandson and great granddaughter I haven't seen yet she is 9 my grandson is 7. You are such a neat person and dont deserve all the things that have happened to you two.

Onions and celery are what makes potato soup good.

Going to have to make this hope it tastes like my grandma used to make the only difference is she would cut her potatoes into force or 6 depending on the size of the potato she never made cubes and it was just awesome I loved Grandma's potato soup. Mom would make it occasionally as well
