Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make mashed potato soup with croutons in a blender? Prepare your food. Fresh herbs will be needed to serve the finished dish; I used fresh dill. I use 10% cream. Salt and pepper to taste, you can add your favorite spices. To prepare the soup you will need 500 ml of hot water or broth. There are several slices of bread, but this is for reference as to who likes how many croutons in the soup. Turn on the oven and preheat it to 190 degrees to prepare the crackers.

Step 2
Cut white bread into small cubes. Place the sliced bread on a baking sheet in a single layer and place it in the preheated oven for about 15 to 20 minutes. The exact time depends on your oven. You can learn about the operating features of ovens by reading a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.
