ok i'm making this right now.

i hope i got the amounts right :)

how much butter goes in there? i think i used about 60 gram (it's probably too much) too late now :)

i think we're gonna make way too much as well :) maybe invite a third friend :)

Taste to figure out. Its a hands on thing. If in doubt, add less, cook a little, and add some more.

BMW will probably tell me it's not chunky enough

but it was an accident, it was un-chunky before i knew it!

also, it was[/i a good baguette.  :evil:

Actually, I like it rather gruel like, with very small pieces. From looking at the picture I can almost taste it. Damn, I want some now too.

You have the right idea with the bread. Use it for dipping.

Also, you never said if you liked it or not.

Edit: Missed that you thought it was yummy the first time through. What color it turns out as actually depends alot on how much milk you add. I usually judge how much is right by the color of the soup changing from yellowy to more of a  creame color. thats usually a couple of heaping splashes, depending on the size of the pot.

LMNO: hit me with it. I don't have a food processor, but I'm pretty certain the chick I'm moving in with in Boston has one.

Making my own baguette would be hell of awesome. 8)

So DC, you and this other chick are gonna 'process' your 'baguette' after you move in?

I hope DC isn't upset about any of this, or I would start to feel very bad for laughing.

I was wondering about that.

My oven was all preheated and everything :p

If it works out, though, I'm making some of my historically kickass soup with it. This is really exciting, because this soup is one of my favorite foods, but without a really good bread for the "substance," it just isn't nearly as good. You have me all excited, LMNO, don't let me down!

thats the cool thing about this potato soup. its so thick that its enough substance to eat without bread, if you can believe that.

I definitely believe that. Potatoes are awesome like that. I love potatoes!

My soup is with onions and a creamy stock and cheese and it's soooo delicious, but the most delicious part is the bread that's been cooked with it so that it absorbs the flavor. But it needs to be a really high quality baguette, because the hard shell keeps the bread from getting mushy, just makes the crust soft, while the inside stays tasty, but steeped in flavor. It's really fantastic.

this is definitely true.

i had about 2.5 plates of the stuff and a few chunks of bread and i was *stuffed*
(but then again, i'm not known and noted for my insatiable appetite or ever-expanding stomach)

i kinda knew i wouldn't really need bread, but it's kinda that bread is "supposed" to go with soup. otherwise you're just spooning down a plate of soup. but even when it's just plain and simple soup, food should have multiple possibilities to interact with it:
tear off bread, dip in the soup, eat, have another spoonful, eat, etc >>>>> spoon spoon spoon spoon spoon

next time i think i'm gonna add a few rings of leek (or perhaps spring onion) to the soup, cause i think it needs more green vegetable (must have green vegetable every day, my mum always taught me)
