Sweet Potato and Bourbon Soup
- 4 tb Butter
- 4 md Sweet potatoes; peel, slice
- 6 c Chicken stock
- 1/3 c Bourbon
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Parsley
Heat the butter in a large flame-proof casserole or enamel pan. Add a layer
of potatoes and brown on both sides. Remove and repeat until all are
browned. Add 5 cups of the chicken stock. Cook, covered, until the potatoes
are tender enough for a fork to pierce them easily. When they are tender,
remove 1 cup of the potatoes and puree in a processor fitted with the
grating blade. Return to the soup and, with a spoon, break up the rest of
the potatoes into large chunks. Taste. Stir in as much of the remaining cup
of chicken stock as is necessary for a medium-thick soup. (Recipe may be
done ahead to this point.) Add bourbon to the soup and bring to a boil.
Simmer for 5 minutes, season with salt and pepper and portion into bowls or
cups. Garnish with parsley and serve.
