Ingredients
  

For the Soup Base
  • 1 lb Beef (top round or chuck roast) Provides hearty flavor and texture; consider using tender cuts for juicy bites.
  • 4 cups Potatoes (Russet, Yukon Gold, or red) Adds creaminess and substance; they hold their shape beautifully during cooking.
  • 2 cups Whole milk Contributes to the creaminess of the broth; can substitute with lower-fat milk.
  • 1 cup Heavy cream Enhances the rich texture crucial for that velvety consistency.
  • 2 tbsp Butter Adds richness; can be omitted for a lighter version.
For the Flavor Boost
  • 1 cup Sharp white cheddar cheese Elevates flavor with a sharpness; freshly grated melts better.
  • Spices and herbs (to taste) Options include thyme, rosemary, or parsley.

Equipment

  • Large Pot
