  3. Put cream cheese into a small bowl. Cover with warm broth from the soup. Let stand a few min to heat. Stir well to blend.

  9. NOTES : lots of onion. Roasted bell pepper; a healthy pinch of lemon peel. Fat-free cream cheese, etc. a few drops of white truffle oil at the end - any high flavor oil will do it. Very good flavor. Par-boiling the potatoes kept the amount of "grit" to a minimum.
