What kind of potatoes are best for soup?
I used Yukon potatoes. They are a fantastic all-purpose potato that works in almost any recipe.
You can also use red potatoes. Red potatoes have a really low starch content that makes them a perfect addition to soups.

What is the serving size. It can’t be too large because of only one potato
Why does the video show 2 potatoes and celery and in the recipe you say 1 potato and nothing about celery?
I was also wondering why the recipe calls for 1 potato both pictures show 2. I wouldn’t think 1 potato is enough.
