Instructions
- In a large dutch oven, cook strips of bacon until crispy. Remove from pan.
- Cook the carrots, onion, and celery in bacon grease until the onions are translucent.
- Add potatoes, salts, and pepper. Mix well, and let cook for a few minutes.
- Add chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the potatoes are very soft, about 15 minutes.
- Blend the soup, if desired. I do this with an immersion blender but you can also transfer the soup to a blender. Be VERY careful when doing this, as hot liquids will expand. Never fill the blender over halfway with hot soup.
- Add the hot sauce and milk. Add the milk gradually until the soup is as thick or thin as you prefer. You may not need to use all of it.
- Add the chives and parsley and adjust seasonings or consistency, if needed.
- I like to serve with sour cream, cheese, and then crumble the bacon on top.
