Smoked Ham and Potato Cream Soup

Potato cream soup is one of the most popular and simplest cream soups, made truly special by the addition of smoked ham. In Hungary, smoked meats have a long culinary tradition and can be found in many dishes. The smoky, salty flavor harmonizes perfectly with the creamy texture of the potatoes, making this soup a true warming dish for winter. The addition of toasted croutons provides a crunchy contrast to the dish, making it even more enjoyable.
