I first got this recipe from a "Two Hot Tamales" book. I make this at least twice a year on demand of my friends and family. This a "South of the Border" style soup. It can have a quite mild to moderately hot heat level depending on the Chiles. ... More

Fans
- 8 large Yukon Gold Potatoes Peeled, cut into large cubes (10 Med)
- 4 Strips Bacon chopped
- 4 - 6 Medium Sized Poblano Peppers. (Roasted, Peeled, Chopped)
- 1 Large Onion chopped
- 3 Cloves Garlic chopped
- 1 Cup Creme Fraiche
- 1 Cup Heavy Cream, Half & Half, or Milk
- 1 Qt Chicken or Vegetable Stock
- 1/2 Cup Dry Sherry
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Directions
- On a Grill, Broiler, or Gas Stove, Roast Poblanos until the Skins are blistered and black all around. Place in a paper bag or lided container to steam. (15 Min.) Peel, remove seeds and roughly chop. If you want to make your soup less piquant, cut out all the white inside veins.
- In a dutch oven or large Stock Pot, render chopped bacon on medium heat until crisp. Remove to drain in a paper towel lined bowl.
- Increase heat to medim high, add Onion, cook until transparant and tender (4 - 5 Min) Add 1/2 the Pablanos 1/2 the bacon and Garlic, cook for another 2 min.
- Deglaze with Sherry and cook 1 - 2 Min. Add Potatoes and Chicken Stock. Cook Approx. 25 - 30 min until potatoes are fork tender.
- Puree' in batches in a blender and return to pot. (Pulse only enough to make the mixture smooth. Over blending will make the soup "Gluey"
- Reheat soup until hot
- In a large measuring cup or bowl, wisk the Creme Fraiche with Cream, Half & Half or Milk until smooth. Wisk mixture into soup. Stir in remanin bacon and chopped Pablano. Heat gently until hot, Remove from heat and serv.
- Garnishes I have used: Crisp Bacon, Chopped Roasted Poblano Peppers, Fried Cheese slice, 2 Seared Shrimp per bowl, 1 Seared Portobello slice per bowl w/ a drizzle of Truffle oil. Parsley, Cilantro. Shredded Anejo Cheese.

Thanks for posting this...it looks great! My husband and I saw the Two hot tamale girls at the annual UCLA book festival a few years ago. Used to watch their cooking show. Now I am going to bookmark this and when I make it, I'll let you know how I like it!

You've done it again Jim! The peppers caught my eye first but then on further examination... sounds awesome. Truffle oil and cilantro? Oh my! Thats over the top. You have my 5.

Nice recipe, Jim. I need to play with the garnishes you've listed and I do have truffle oil. I love poblanos - they are usually my pepper of choice when making anything. Thanks so much...saving.

I made your luscious soup on Sunday and it was so delicious and divine. So full of flavor and comfort. I topped it with crispy bacon pieces, sour cream, chopped scallions and cilantro. Wow - great! Served it with a Buttermilk Mexican Cornbread loaded with roasted, peeled and chopped poblanos, queso fresca, grilled corn cut off the cob and scallions. We all loved it. Plus, I had one dose of leftovers for my Monday's lunch. What could be better?
Thanks, Jim hon - this soup is wonderful and you're right, it could be jazzed up in countless way. But I wanted to try it 'your way' first.
Hugs,

Looks absolutely fabulous! Thanks! Can't wait to make it this fall! (too hot right now in Texas for poblano, or any other kind of soup, but I sure love it!!) Have a great weekend!

Roasted pablanos are no doubt one of the most desirable peppers I could and have made a meal just with them.This soup is great comfort food loaded with flavor.

Wow....and I dearly loved the Hot Tamales...miss them. This would be perfectly awesome and I can see us digging into a bowl full quite happily. Bravo Jim!!

What a manly soup! (I equate men with bacon, ha ha)

I'm back...heh. I made this "again' tonight (3rd time) and changed your solid winning soup up a bit. I subbed Crema Mexicana for the Creme Fraiche because that's what I had. I took your suggestions with bacon pieces, chopped roasted poblanos, chopped cilantro - but added queso freso cheese (crumbled). As an extra topper, I took white corn tortillas and sliced them up and fried them off until crisp. Pulled them and salted them lightly. Yummm....but the soup is the star. The rest is dressing on the cake...ermmm...soup.
Adding pics...this is my process tonight...
I love this soup. Totally - and y'all will, too. I'll do a bowl with fried cheese next time out.
Bravo, Jim hon. ;-)~ Vickie
